The Republic of Albania declares that the term "divorce" in the context
of the Convention has the same meaning as "marriage dissolution",
provided for in the Albanian law.
In accordance with the first
paragraph of article 19 of the Convention, the Republic of Albania
reserves the right to refuse to recognize a divorce or legal separation
between two spouses who, at the time of the divorce or legal separation,
were nationals of the Republic of Albania and of no other State, and a
law other than that indicated by the Albanian legislation for rules of
private international law was applied, unless the result reached is the
same as that which would have been reached by applying the law indicated
by those rules.
In accordance with article 21 of the Convention, the
Republic of Albania reserves the right to refuse to recognize a legal
separation when, at the time it was obtained, one of the spouses was an
Albanian national or of a Contracting State whose law did not provide
for legal separation.
In accordance with the second paragraph of
article 24 of the Convention, the Republic of Albania declares it shall
apply the provisions of the Convention on the Recognition of Divorces
and Legal Separations, done prior to its date of entry into force and
reserves the right to not apply it if the application of provisions does
not affect the property rights obtained by any person prior to the
entry into force of the Convention.
