About the Canadian dollar
The Canadian dollar (CAD) reaches Albania mostly with the Albanian community in Canada — money sent home, summer visits, students. Banks and the larger exchange offices quote it, and the Bank of Albania publishes an official rate for it every day.
What moves the CAD/ALL rate
- Bank of Canada interest-rate decisions
- Oil and commodity prices, which Canada exports
- The US dollar: the Canadian dollar tends to move with the American economy
- EUR/ALL, because the lek mostly follows the euro

Canadian Dollar to Lek: common questions
How many lek is 1 Canadian dollar today?
The rate moves through the day. The figures at the top of this page are the current average buy and sell rates across the sources we track, refreshed every 15 minutes; the table above shows what each source quotes, and the home page compares every currency.
Can I exchange Canadian dollars in Albania?
Yes — at the main banks and the larger exchange offices in Tirana and other cities. It is less widely accepted than the euro or the US dollar, so the gap between buy and sell is usually wider. Compare the sources in the table above before you change money.
Should I bring Canadian dollars or euros?
Euros are exchanged everywhere in Albania at a narrow margin; Canadian dollars are not. If changing Canadian dollars into euros costs you little at home, euros are usually the more practical cash to carry. Cards work in cities and along the coast; smaller places are cash-only.
