Reacquisition under AL-RST-02 restores FULL Albanian citizenship — the statute defines «Shtetësi shqiptare» as «lidhja e qëndrueshme juridike ndërmjet një personi dhe shtetit shqiptar», carrying fundamental rights and reciprocal duties ( Neni 2). Albania's regime is non-discriminatory between citizens by birth and citizens who acquired or reacquired: Neni 3 letter “ç” guarantees «mosdiskriminimin e shtetasve shqiptarë, pavarësisht nëse ata janë shtetas që nga lindja apo e kanë fituar shtetësinë shqiptare sipas këtij ligji» ( Neni 3). DUAL CITIZENSHIP: 113/2020 contains no renunciation requirement and no automatic-loss-on-foreign-naturalization rule; dual nationality is retained as a matter of course. For THIS route, though, the eligibility gate requires the applicant to be currently WITHOUT another citizenship ( kreu VI.1(c) «aktualisht është person pa shtetësi»), so the immediate effect is the cure of statelessness — directly serving the statute's guiding principles «të drejtën e çdo personi për të gëzuar të paktën një shtetësi» and «shmangien e pashtetësisë» (Neni 3 letters “a”, “b”). STABILITY OF STATUS: once vested (post-oath), the reacquired citizen is exposed to no transitional-route-specific cancellation; the general deprivation grounds of Neni 15 apply equally to all citizens who acquired by naturalization or reacquisition, subject to the anti-statelessness and non-arbitrariness principles of Neni 3 (letters “b”, “c”). As of 2026-07-11.

Procedure for AL-RST-02 tracks the general acquisition/reacquisition machinery of 113/2020 Kreu III, adapted for the later windows. FILING (W6a baseline, Neni 17 as enacted): the kërkesë was lodged at the local State-Police structure of the applicant's residence, or — for applicants resident abroad — at an Albanian diplomatic mission or consular post (Neni 17(2)). FILING (W6b/W6c, from 21.6.2024, Neni 17 as amended by Ligj 77/2023 Neni 6): «Kërkesa drejtuar Presidentit të Republikës së Shqipërisë për fitimin, rifitimin dhe heqjen dorë nga shtetësia shqiptare dhe dokumentacioni i kërkuar sipas këtij ligji depozitohen online nëpërmjet platformës elektronike “e-albania”» ( Ligj 77/2023 Neni 6, Art 17(1) as amended). The consular-intake channel for abroad-filed heqje dorë and rifitim persists: the mission forwards the file to the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, which «brenda 15 (pesëmbëdhjetë) ditëve i përcjell për shqyrtim pranë strukturës përgjegjëse në ministri» ( Neni 18 pika 2, unchanged). The live e-Albania service-code landscape distinguishes 9627 (fitim), 9635 (lënie) and 9763/9764 (rifitim / lënie via MFA); per-service form-field detail is session-gated and not asserted. REVIEW: the responsible ministry structure examines the dossier within six months and forwards a decree proposal to the President (Neni 18(3)); the President issues the decree within 60 days (Neni 20(1)), published in the Fletorja Zyrtare (Neni 20(3)). DOCUMENTATION for the transitional class is set by Udhëzim 65/2021 kreu VI.1 (personal and family certificate; the kreu-VI.1(c) statelessness declaration; the administrative-unit confirmation; each applicant's parents' birth/death certificates; a police-and-prefecture report on the parents' citizenship; photographs) ( kreu VI pika 1). The W6b/W6c currency of that documentation baseline carries an express caveat: the joint MoI+MFA instruction contemplated by amended Art 17(2) is unlocated, so documentation is pinned to the decoded Udhëzim 65/2021 rather than to any post-2024 joint instrument. As of 2026-07-11.

AL-RST-02 is the TRANSITIONAL reacquisition (rifitim) channel created by Ligj 113/2020 “Për shtetësinë” Neni 23 “Dispozitë kalimtare” pika 2 ( Neni 23 pika 2). Its operative text is: «Personi që ka hequr dorë nga shtetësia shqiptare para hyrjes në fuqi të këtij ligji dhe nuk ka apo nuk ka fituar shtetësi tjetër, rifiton shtetësinë shqiptare mbi bazën e kërkesës së paraqitur dhe dokumentacionit shoqërues, nëse nuk përbën kërcënim për rendin publik dhe sigurinë kombëtare. Në këtë rast kërkesa trajtohet sipas parashikimeve të këtij ligji.» The provision reaches a CLOSED historical class: persons who RENOUNCED (hequr dorë) Albanian citizenship BEFORE the statute's entry into force (14.10.2020 — Neni 26: «Ky ligj hyn në fuqi 15 ditë pas botimit në Fletoren Zyrtare», Fletorja Zyrtare 2020/174) and who are now left without another citizenship. It is DISTINCT from the ordinary reacquisition route in Neni 16 (“Rifitimi i shtetësisë”), which opens rifitim to any «person që ka hequr dorë» but conditions the grant on satisfying Neni 8(1) letters “a”, “b”, “dh” and “ë” ( Neni 16). Neni 23(2) is deliberately lighter: it imposes NO age, legal-capacity, criminal-record, residence, language or means gate beyond the single public-order-and-national-security screen, precisely because it exists to cure statelessness produced by pre-2020 renunciations. No renunciation-of-foreign-nationality requirement exists anywhere in 113/2020 — Albania retains dual citizenship — and here the applicant is by definition already without another nationality. As of 2026-07-11 the provision remains operative across windows W6a/W6b/W6c.

Decision-making for AL-RST-02 is presidential, on a ministerial proposal. GRANTING AUTHORITY: the President of the Republic issues the reacquisition decree — the kërkesë is «drejtuar Presidentit të Republikës» ( kreu VI.1(a); Art 17(1)) and «Presidenti i Republikës brenda 60 (gjashtëdhjetë) ditëve nga paraqitja e propozimit nga ministria nxjerr dekretin përkatës» ( Neni 20 pika 1). PROPOSING / PROCESSING AUTHORITY: the responsible citizenship structure within the Ministry of the Interior (Ministria e Brendshme, Sektori i Shtetësisë) reviews the dossier within six months and forwards the decree proposal (Neni 18 pika 3); intake for domestic filings runs through the State Police local structures (Neni 17(1) as enacted) and, from 21.6.2024, through the e-Albania electronic platform ( Art 17(1)). CONSULAR CHANNEL: for applicants abroad, the Albanian diplomatic mission or consular post receives the file and the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs (Ministria për Evropën dhe Punët e Jashtme) forwards it within 15 days to the interior-ministry structure (Neni 18 pika 2; MEPJ rifitim page). OATH AUTHORITY: the reacquired citizen takes the loyalty oath (betimi) before the mayor (kryetar i bashkisë) of the municipality of residence, or before an authorized official (Neni 21). PUBLICATION / REGISTRATION: the decree is published in the Fletorja Zyrtare (Neni 20 pika 3) and recorded in the special statistical register (Neni 20 pika 4). As of 2026-07-11.
