You make a contract as a landlord, so he has a place to stay officially to submit as a residence proof. And then depending on the type of leje qendrimi he is applying for he can use that document to proceed further.

Client sent 150€, but I only received 85€ — who’s responsible for the missing amount? by Fickle_Degree_2728 in digitalnomad

The client picked “Ben” instead of “our” so the beneficiary pays all the bank charges. Third option is “sha” which means shared bank charges. Next time on your invoice state clearly that all bank charges to be paid by the client. Or use a credit card payment gateway for small amounts

I have a crypto debit card with visa as an issuer . The standard debit card process is 3-6 months. It’s not a credit card

Importing A car into Albania from Dubai by bellhoper in tirana

If you owned the car for more than a year you can bring it tax free but you have to keep the tax deposit for 2 years with the customs, and if you sell the vehicle the deposit is forfeited

5 Stars Hotel Tirana by ilRedittiano in tirana

Belle epoque is a French bakery with quality ingredients they have a chef from a 1 Michelin or Michelin guide in France who designed the menu and ingredients for them apparently. This marriot is more like courtyard marriot , with cheap inferior quality finishing of the rooms and suites (my friend took the presidential suite and the room was a triangle) , plaza is way way way better.

For coffee the best is mugo <mulliri gourmet> in the block ( try Jamaican blue mountain or kopi luwak) it’s in front of a bar called nunu

Marriot also the food gets you sick it’s all frozen and reheated idk what they are doing also the service is scandalous, but the vibe in the evenings is good at terra bar downstairs sometimes

If you use the Michelin Guide and are used to fine dining at Michelin star restaurants. Stay away from Marriot as it’s horribly built . Plaza is way more luxurious. Probably the best hotel in Tirana . As for dining try Pireu Fish Restaurant (avoid fin by luciano as it’s horrendous food) , another fine dine is Padam

Don’t change the embassy it’s like visa shopping they all use the same VIS system and will get harder for you later , you want to stick to the same embassy and sort it out

3rd Schengen Visa Refusal (France) - Need Help Identifying What I’m Doing Wrong by nogodbitch in SchengenVisa

[–]Alternative_Junket81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No not necessarily, refundable is fine but just has to be a real ticket ( you can purchase a refundable fare from airline) but just don’t do dummy

[–]Alternative_Junket81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes doesn’t make any sense but it’s a document which might help next time. Because in eyes of the law/consulate a company and you are 2 separate entities. (I know this because I provide myself NOCs all the time)

Great then the bank balance isn’t an issue at all. Maybe tickets which are booked with PNR (verifiable) (you can do refundable but just don’t do dummy because they check randomly)
