🇦🇱 Sending a Fax to Albania: Number Format, Price and Steps
Choose Albania in the country list, and +355 is added for you. Then type the Albanian number without its first 0, so a Tirana number written 04 234 5678 is entered as 42345678. A fax of up to 3 pages costs $6.99, and each extra page is $0.99.

Entering an Albanian Fax Number
Albanian numbers are written with a 0 in front for calls inside the country. The numbering plan filed by AKEP, the Albanian regulator, with the International Telecommunication Union says that calls from abroad use 355 and then the national number without that 0. The +355 is already shown beside our box, so you only remove the 0 and type the rest.
Landline numbers in Albania have 8 digits after the 0 is removed. In Tirana the area code is the single digit 4, followed by 7 digits. Here are two examples:
| Written in Albania | Typed in our box | Digits |
|---|---|---|
| 04 234 5678 | 42345678 | 8 |
| +355 4 345 6789 | 43456789 | 8 |
Other parts of Albania use two- or three-digit area codes, and their landline numbers also come to 8 digits in total, so a quick count is a good check. If you count 9 digits and the number starts with 6, it is most likely a mobile number, and a mobile phone normally cannot receive a fax.
The cost
Sending up to 3 pages to Albania costs $6.99. From the fourth page on, each page adds $0.99, and the full price appears on the screen before you pay.
Here is how that works for a 5-page document: $6.99 for the first 3 pages plus $0.99 for page 4 and $0.99 for page 5, which comes to $8.97. A 10-page document comes to $13.92.
There is no sign-up and no monthly charge, so a single fax is a single payment.
How it works, step by step
Add a PDF, a Word file or a photo of each page. You can add up to 10 files, up to 100MB in total, and they are sent as one fax.
Select Albania in the country list. The code +355 then appears next to the number box.
Type the number without the 0 it starts with. Do not type 355, 00 or 011, because the country code is already added.
The price is $6.99 for up to 3 pages and $0.99 for each extra page. The total is shown before you pay.
Delivery usually takes a few minutes; some international routes can take up to about 30 minutes. If the fax fails, you are refunded automatically.
Who sends faxes to Albania? People in the United States fax Albania for many ordinary reasons, for example to reach an embassy or consulate, a university office, a bank, or a business partner who asked for a signed page by fax.
Your cover page
Your cover page can be very simple. Please write who the fax is for, who it is from, how the recipient in Albania can contact you, how many pages follow, and any reference number you were given. Nothing else is added to your pages, so the office sees exactly what you upload.
If the fax does not get through
Sometimes a fax to Albania cannot be completed because the line is busy, the receiving machine is out of paper, or the number is not a fax line. Offices are most likely to have their machine ready during working hours. Albania is usually six hours ahead of US Eastern Time, so a fax sent at 9 in the morning in New York arrives at about 3 in the afternoon in Tirana.
In every one of these cases the payment is refunded automatically. Please confirm the number with the recipient, wait a little, and send the fax again during their office hours.
When you need a fax back
When you expect a fax back from Albania, you can use GetAFax.com. For $5 you get a private US fax number for 24 hours, it accepts up to 30 pages, and every fax that arrives is emailed to you as a PDF.
