The most expensive villages, how much will the fiscal prices be from Lalëzi

For the first time, fiscal prices will also be applied to villages for the sale and purchase of buildings/apartments in the country.

Monitor reveals the highest reference prices that will be applied in rural areas, which coincide with the front line of construction in coastal areas.

According to tables and digital maps, the highest reference prices for the village are led by the first line of construction in Lalzit Bay and Hamallaj at a value of 190 thousand lek per square meter.

Then, the highest reference prices are proposed for the first line of construction in the villages of Himara, such as Dhërmi and Palasë, with a reference value of 140 thousand lekë/m2. In the village of Vuno, the reference price will be 100 thousand lekë and in Livadh 81 thousand lekë/m2.

In Saranda, the most expensive village will be Ksamili, the reference prices will be 100 thousand lekë/m2. In Vlora, the reference prices for the coastline of the villages of Radhimë and Orikum will be 90 thousand lekë/m2, which also constitute the most expensive rural areas of the Vlora municipality. In Velipoja, the reference price will be 75 thousand lekë per square meter and in Tale of Lezha 70 thousand lekë per square meter.

On the basis of the reference prices, municipalities calculate the liability for the building tax and the infrastructure impact tax. If currently the reference prices are used to calculate the taxable base of these taxes, which is the value of the property, for rural areas in their absence, the city price was used but reduced by 35%. With the new proposed changes, municipalities will no longer have the right to reduce the reference prices for rural areas, but will be forced to implement the new prices that the government proposes. The amended draft decision is expected to be approved by the government.

With the inclusion of rural areas in the reference price map, the number of cadastral zones in the entire country reaches 176. Currently, the districts are divided into 65 cadastral zones. These prices have also been revised up to 196%.

The working group that drafted the reference prices explained to Monitor that many rural areas, mainly coastal ones, will be divided into several cadastral zones. This practice has so far only been used for Tirana, which is divided into 32 cadastral zones.

It was proposed in July 2025 that urban areas in districts be divided into several cadastral zones, from 65, their number reaching 116.

The government has revised the published draft decision of the Public Consultations and proposes a division into several cadastral zones, including for villages. Specifically, the first line of some villages in coastal areas will have a reference price many times higher than the area in the interior of the village. While in general, all villages (except those in tourist areas) are proposed fiscal prices equal to the current prices that are in force for the districts.

All changes with digital maps and tables completed by the working group have been sent to the Council of Ministers for approval.

The new fiscal prices revised in July 2025 for the districts were expected to enter into force on January 1, 2026. With the recent revisions to the reference prices, the government is expected to approve a new division of them, now a map with 176 cadastral zones, including villages for the first time.
