The annual nominal rate is used to calculate interest on the outstanding loan amount; it excludes fees and is different from APR. Rates depend on the currency, customer profile and fixed period. BTH refers to Albanian Treasury bills, while Euribor is a benchmark for euro borrowing. For a variable rate, the published minimum is a floor; the rate you pay may be higher.
Salary at the lending bank
The offer starts at the same rate for salaried customers. After ten years, receiving salary at Raiffeisen reduces the margin by 0.5 points in ALL or 0.25 in EUR.
What does salary transfer mean?
For an offer conditional on salary transfer, salary must be credited to an account at the lending bank; simply having an account there is not the same. Ask how long you must keep your salary there and what account or package fees apply. The bank confirms eligibility.
Albanian resident with documented income and a home acceptable as security.

APR is not an additional charge. Where available, the bank’s published examples are shown below; your offer may differ. Compare the same currency, amount, term and customer profile.
