Ramadan 1448
Ramadan 2027 in Albania
The expected start date, who decides it, and first-day sufyri and iftar times across 1 city.
How Albania decides
Albania follows a pre-calculated lunar calendar, so the start date is set by astronomical calculation rather than a moon sighting.
KMSH publishes its own yearly prayer/fasting calendar in advance; the 2025 calendar and news coverage confirm the fast began March 1, 2025. A KMSH 2026 calendar exists but its Ramadan 1447 date could not be extracted from the available PDF, so start_1447 is left null rather than guessed.
