Country guide · OIC member state
Albania, a Muslim-majority country in south-eastern Europe, has been a member of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation since 1992. Its Halal economy is still young: there is no national Halal law or government certification body, and Albanian producers who sell to Halal markets rely on certification bodies recognised by their buyers' countries.
The main meeting point for the sector is the Albanian Halal Expo, held every year in Tirana since its first edition, which brings together Halal food manufacturers, Islamic banks and financial institutions, Islamic tourism, textiles, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, with buyers from neighbouring countries. This guide lists the institutions behind each part, with their pages on Wasabih.

Tirana, Albania
Yes. Albania has been a member state of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation since 1992, one of the few OIC members in Europe.
Albania has no national Halal law or government Halal certification body. Producers selling to Halal markets use certification bodies recognised in their buyers' countries, so they should check the importing country's list first.

Halal food manufacturers, Islamic banks and financial institutions, tourism companies and producers of textiles, cosmetics and medicines, along with buyers from Albania and neighbouring countries.
