Albania has expressed interest in recruiting both skilled and unskilled workers from Bangladesh to meet its growing labor demand.
In a meeting with Chief Adviser Dr. Yunus on Thursday, Albanian President Bajram Begaj said several companies have already applied to hire Bangladeshi workers. He added that cooperation could also expand in sectors like tourism.
Dr. Yunus welcomed the proposal, stressing Bangladesh’s potential to contribute with its young, energetic workforce. He urged Albania to simplify visa procedures, noting that Bangladeshis currently need to apply via New Delhi.
President Begaj assured that Albania is considering introducing an e-visa system for Bangladesh. He also stated that Albanian universities are ready to welcome Bangladeshi students under existing international admission programs.
