Albania
Located in the heart of the Balkan Peninsula, Albania is a small but strategically located country sharing borders with Kosovo, Greece, Montenegro, and North Macedonia. Its energetic capital, Tirana, is both the country's political and economic center and has in recent years become a hub for international investors and businesses seeking to access Southeast Europe. Although Albanian is the sole official language, of which there are two principal dialects, Tosk and Gheg, most of the young people speak English, so business across borders is much easier. Albania is an EU membership candidate since 2014 and is displaying institution-building and foreign investment openness. The country is attractive to companies wishing to expand cost-effectively in the region because of competitive labour, better infrastructure, and emerging IT and tourist industries.Mauve Group provides an entire spectrum of services to assist them there–among them are Employer of Record (EOR) services, administration of payroll, HR compliance, and business setup. Whether a company is operating an offshore team or seeking to invest more permanently in Albania, Mauve is available to assist in navigating Albania's labour and tax regulations.
