Talk to us ↗PROGRAMME OVERVIEW
Programme overview
Understand your needs. Review the right route.
Start with your European living and regional business goals, then assess the residence or citizenship route against your background. Albania is an EU candidate country; its citizenship is not EU citizenship. Any special-contribution route requires confirmation of the current legal basis and personal eligibility.

DOCUMENT PREPARATION
Document preparation
This is a preliminary guide, not a final checklist for every applicant. Requirements must be confirmed in writing after your circumstances and application route have been reviewed. Check validity periods, translations, certification and original-document requirements before making arrangements.
What you can prepare first
Identity documents
Current passport, identity documents and consistent spelling of personal names.
Personal and family information
Personal history, parents’ names and birth details, and family relationships where relevant.
Birth records and photographs
Birth certificates and recent identity photographs; specifications and required versions need confirmation.
After your route is confirmed
Background checks and certification
Criminal-record documentation and the translation or certification requirements for relevant records.
Contribution and supporting evidence
Genuine contribution, recommendation or assessment evidence where required by the specific route.
Children and guardianship
Birth and relationship records, parental or guardian identification, consent and applicable guardianship documents, reviewed by age and case.
Do not send full identity documents, asset records or fingerprints through this website or ordinary chat. Before formal collection, we will clarify the purpose, recipient and submission method.
STEP BY STEP
The process
Understand your situation
Discuss your goals, family members, existing status and preferred timeline.
Review the route
Identify applicable conditions, supporting evidence and matters requiring professional review.
Define the plan
Clarify the scope, document requirements and stages requiring your involvement.
Coordinate and follow up
Coordinate documents, further requests and progress as agreed. Decisions rest with the relevant authorities.
Questions
Does this mean citizenship can simply be purchased?
A programme introduction does not establish eligibility. The route, legal applicability and personal circumstances require verification. Payment must not be treated as equivalent to approval.
Which stages might require me to attend?
Personal involvement in signing, an oath, registration or document issuance should be confirmed for the specific route and clearly set out in the proposal.
Does this include residence or work arrangements elsewhere in Europe?
Travel, residence, study and work requirements in other countries need separate review. One status should not be assumed to provide rights elsewhere.
