Why do foreigners come to Albania? Almost half for employment, only 4 percent

In recent years, Albania has undoubtedly had a successful season in terms of tourism, but foreigners do not visit Albania only in seasonal periods as some of them seek to live in our country. According to INSTAT data, in the year we left behind, i.e. in 2022, a total of 18,151 residence permits were approved for foreigners, thus establishing an increase of 21.6% compared to 2021. But how is the profile of a foreigner with a residence permit in Albania?

"Scan Intel" has analyzed the data on foreigners who enjoy a residence permit in our country according to their age, gender, purpose and country of origin. The figures show that 20% of foreigners staying in Albania belong to the age group of 30-39 years, 18% of them are 50-59 years old, while young people make up about 26%.

As for the distribution of foreigners by gender, the data show that foreigners who have a residence permit in our country are more men than women. Specifically, in 2022, about 11,300 men and 6,900 women were beneficiaries of the permit. Expressed as a percentage, we say that men make up 63% of the total, while women make up 37%. This trend has been the same in previous years as well.

But why do foreigners want to stay in Albania? According to the data, the main reason is employment, that is, about 43.7% of foreign nationals are interested in integrating into the labor market, 23.9% of them have obtained a residence permit as a result of family reunification, and much fewer foreigners have requested a residence permit. for reasons of academic studies.

Also, foreigners who prefer to stay in Albania for the reasons mentioned above present a high diversity as they come from different countries of the world. In absolute terms, we say that residence permits have been approved for 13,300 citizens from Europe, which constitute 73% of the total, while the second in line are 2,600 citizens from Asia or 15% of the total number of residence permits granted. Fewer citizens from Africa and America have shown interest in acquiring the right of residence in Albania.
