Albanian Lek Exchange Rate (ALL) – Currency Exchange in Warsaw

The Albanian lek (ALL) is the official currency of Albania, issued by the Bank of Albania (Banka e Shqipërisë). At Kantor Argentarii in Warsaw you can buy lek before your trip and sell any banknotes you bring back – quickly and at the current rate.

We are located at Grzybowska 61, in the Platinum Towers gallery – on the border of Wola and the city centre, a short walk from Rondo Daszyńskiego. It is one of the few places in Warsaw where you can buy and sell Albanian lek on the spot.

Current Albanian lek rate (ALL/PLN)

You will find our current buy and sell rates for the Albanian lek on the agkantor.pl homepage. They are updated continuously during opening hours and apply to exchanges in store. For larger amounts we can agree a rate individually – just give us a call. Note that the National Bank of Poland publishes the lek rate only once a week (table B), so current kantor rates may differ from the latest NBP figure.

How much is 1 000 ALL in złoty

At the NBP mid rate, 1 ALL = 0.0473 zł (table 037/B/NBP/2026 of 16 September 2026), which means 1 zł = 21.1305 ALL.

At the Argentarii exchange office at Grzybowska 61 we buy ALL today at 0.0470 zł; selling this currency is temporarily unavailable (updated 04.09.2026, 08:56).

Buying and selling Albanian lek in Warsaw

The Albanian lek is an exotic currency in Poland – only a handful of exchange offices stock it. At Argentarii we both sell lek before your trip and buy banknotes back after your return from Albania. The Albanian Riviera, Tirana and Saranda attract more tourists every season, so we aim to keep the currency permanently in stock. We also handle exchange of more than twenty other currencies, including exotic ones such as the Georgian lari and the Turkish lira.

What drives the ALL/PLN rate

The lek floats freely – its value is set by the market under the supervision of the Bank of Albania. The strongest drivers are tourism income, remittances from the large Albanian diaspora and the central bank’s interest-rate decisions. In recent years the lek has strengthened noticeably against the euro, helped by record tourist seasons. The ALL/PLN rate is usually calculated through the euro pair, so movements in the euro rate against the złoty also affect the price of lek in Poland.

Which Albanian banknotes we accept

Six banknote denominations are in circulation: 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000 and 10,000 lekë. The Bank of Albania introduced a new banknote series in 2019–2022; the 200 lekë note is printed on polymer. We buy notes that are in circulation and do not accept damaged ones. We do not buy coins. It is best to spend small change before you leave. A practical tip: in Albania prices are sometimes quoted informally in “old lek” (10 old = 1 new lek), which can be confusing on a first visit – shops and exchange offices always use new lek.

How the exchange works

Check the current rate and come to Grzybowska 61. The exchange takes a few minutes: you state the amount, we confirm the board rate and pay out cash on the spot. ID is required only for transactions of EUR 15,000 equivalent or more, in line with AML regulations. The kantor is entered in the NBP register of currency-exchange offices.

Reserve a rate for one hour

You can reserve the online table rate for 60 minutes free of charge – just fill in the contact form or call us. The reservation does not oblige you to exchange. We simply hold the agreed rate for an hour.

Frequently asked questions about exchanging Albanian lek

What is today’s Albanian lek rate at the kantor?

We publish the current buy and sell rate for the Albanian lek on the agkantor.pl homepage. It is updated continuously during opening hours. The same rate applies in store at Grzybowska 61. For larger amounts an individual quote is available by phone.

Where can I buy Albanian lek in Warsaw?

The Albanian lek is an exotic currency and most Polish exchange offices do not stock it. At Kantor Argentarii at Grzybowska 61 (Platinum Towers, Wola) we aim to keep lek permanently available. For larger amounts it is worth confirming availability by phone first. Phone: +48 791 901 979.

Is it better to exchange money in Poland or in Albania?

It is worth carrying some lek for your first expenses: airport transfer, a meal, small fees. The rest can be exchanged locally, where exchange offices readily accept euros. Exchanging złoty directly in Albania can be difficult, as PLN is rarely bought there.

Do you buy back lek after a trip to Albania?

Yes, we buy all circulating banknote denominations – from 200 to 10,000 lekë. We do not accept coins, so it is best to spend change before returning. We do not accept damaged banknotes.

Can I pay by card in Albania, or do I need cash?

In Tirana and the larger resorts cards are increasingly accepted, but outside the cities cash remains essential – taverns, markets and local transport are paid mainly in lek. It is best to take both a card and cash.

Can I pay with euros in Albania?

Euros are sometimes accepted in hotels and tourist areas, but usually at an unfavourable rate – the official currency is the lek and prices are quoted in it. Paying in lek avoids a poor conversion. You can also exchange euros for lek at our kantor.
