Article 11- Extradition

Extradition may be permitted only when explicitly provided for by international treaties where the Republic of Albania is a party.

Extradition shall be permitted when both Albanian law and foreign law provide for the criminal act, which constitutes the object of the request for extradition, as such simultaneously.

Extradition shall not be granted:

a) if the person to be extradited is an Albanian citizen, unless otherwise provided for by the treaty;

b) if the criminal act constituting the object of the request for extradition is of a political or military nature;

c) when there is reasonable ground to believe that the person requested to be extradited will be prosecuted, punished or wanted because of his political, religious, national, racial or ethnic beliefs;

d) if the person requested to be extradited has been tried for the criminal act for which a competent Albanian court demands the extradition.
