An expulsion measure can have significant consequences for the right to reside, to travel and to family life. That is why it is important to respond carefully and in good time.
Read the decision carefully
The decision usually states the reasons for the measure, its duration and information about the possibility of an appeal. Appeal deadlines can be short, so keep the decision and note the date on which it was served on you.
Gather your documents
- the expulsion decision and any accompanying notices;
- identity and residence documents;
- documents proving family ties, employment or studies;
- any correspondence with the authorities.
Personal circumstances matter
Family ties, length of residence and other personal circumstances can be relevant to the assessment of the measure. Every case is reviewed according to its documents and specific circumstances.
Seek advice as soon as possible
Whether you are an Albanian living abroad or a foreign national in Albania, an early consultation helps identify the legal options and prepare the relevant requests or appeals.
