If you are sitting in a bar, it may be that the waiter who comes to take your order does not know Albanian. With the hotel kitchen, the chef may again be a foreigner, most likely Turkish. At the end of 2023, there were almost 1,100 foreigners registered in the accommodation and food service activity in the country.

The tourism and construction sectors are the largest recruiters of foreign workers according to an analysis of migration flows from other countries to our country for 2023.

Data from the National Employment Agency (AKPA) shows that Tirana, Durrës and Vlora have the highest number of foreign workers who received work permits in 2023 in Albania.

As the table shows, foreign workers are present in all regions of the country, even those with high levels of poverty, such as Dibra and Kukës.
