Compare on Discover Cars too →Car hire in Albania runs from a Toyota Yaris for the coast road to a high-clearance SUV for the mountain tracks north. Most offers include basic cover, and booking stays simple: you normally need a passport, a driving licence, a phone number and a payment card. Rates are quoted in euro while fuel, parking and any fines are paid in lek.
A car is useful in Bajram Curri for destinations such as the Rozafa castle above Shkoder, the ferry across Komani lake, the Theth valley in the Accursed Mountains and the Velipoje sands, especially with several stops in a day or with luggage.
If your plans stay inside the town, compare driving with the furgon shared minibuses, the intercity coach and taxis; the furgon network reaches most of the country for a few euro and asks nothing of you at the wheel.
Bring your passport and a valid driving licence. A foreign licence is accepted for a tourist stay, and an International Driving Permit is expected alongside it when the licence is not written in the Latin alphabet.
The minimum age is usually 21 with at least one to two years of licence held. Drivers under 25 often pay a young-driver surcharge, and the SUV and minivan classes commonly set the threshold higher.
Albanian local companies are unusually flexible about the deposit: a card hold is the norm but cash deposits and debit cards are widely accepted. It is still an offer-level rule, so read the specific tariff.
Settle the border question before you book. Greece, Montenegro, Kosovo and North Macedonia are all within a few hours, and every crossing needs the supplier's written permission and a green card arranged in advance.
The catalog covers the main rental categories:
Albanian fleets are built mostly around Volkswagen Golf and Passat, Skoda Octavia, Toyota Yaris, Hyundai i20, Dacia Duster and older Mercedes saloons and similar models, and a manual gearbox is still the cheaper default — confirm the transmission on the offer card if you need an automatic.
Compare the total price together with the deposit, insurance excess, mileage policy, fuel rule, cross-border permission, accepted payment methods and the return conditions.
In Bajram Curri, agree the overnight parking before you arrive: spaces are watched by an attendant rather than metered, and a guarded lot costs a few hundred lek and removes the question entirely.
Weigh the furgon shared minibuses, the intercity coach and taxis against a rental when deciding whether you need the car for the whole stay or only for day trips.
A convertible suits the riviera between Vlore and Sarande in May, June and September, when the Llogara descent is the best hour of the trip.
A soft top raises the deposit and the theft excess, and secure overnight parking is scarce outside Tirana — weigh that against the days you will use it.
Practical points on traffic, documents, payment, insurance, road quality, border permission, parking and vehicle return.
Albania drives on the right. The mountain roads north are single track with passing places and long unsurfaced sections, and the Komani ferry is the only way through some of it; a high car earns its keep here. There are no motorway vignettes and only one toll in the country, on the Kalimash tunnel road towards Kosovo.
Availability and delivery fees depend on the supplier.
Albania uses the lek (ALL), and the euro is widely accepted for larger payments although change comes back in lek.
Rates on this page are shown in euro, while fuel, parking, the tunnel toll and any fines are normally settled in lek under the supplier's terms.
