The Albanian government has revised its tourism law by relaxing the criteria hotels must comply with to obtain a luxury hotel status. According to the revised law, a 5-star hotel with a minimum investment of USD 17.4 billion would get tax exemptions on these investments. Moreover, hotels receiving special status from the government would benefit from tax exemptions for ten years.
