hi, i dont know if you found your answer, but just to let you know that i am also married to an albanian, and have been living in tirana albania for nearly 3 years, it was our choice to live here and not uk, if you stay in albania for more then 90 days you have to go to the border police in tirana and apply for a visa for 1 year, after the 1st year you have to apply again, but the next visa lasts for 2 years after this you have the right to apply for an albanian passport. it costs 10000 lek for the visas. i hope this answers your question
