Albania cabinet approves special-state-interest naturalisation rules
The approved text requires demonstrable state interest; ministerial support does not guarantee citizenship.
Albania’s cabinet approved special-state-interest naturalisation rules on 28 October, including functions of a dedicated citizenship agency. The responsible minister must assess a concrete, verifiable state interest tied to approved policy.[1]
Neither an application nor ministerial recognition guarantees citizenship. This is not a general investment-for-citizenship promise. The decision requires Official Gazette publication to take effect; the cabinet website cautions that its pre-gazette text is not the authoritative legal version. Gazette publication and commencement were not verified.[1]
