CRIMINAL CODE OF THE REPUBLIC OF ALBANIA   |   7895

Article 55: Imposition of sentences for more than one criminal offence

When actions or omissions contain elements of more than one criminal offence, and when the person has committed more than one criminal offence for which no sentence has been rendered, the court first sentences every criminal offence separately, and, in the end, imposes a single sentence, which consists of the most severe and increased sentence.

The severe and increased sentence may exceed neither the total sum of the punishments determined separately nor the maximum provided for the type of the sentence rendered.

When the court deems that committing more than one crime does not demonstrate serious dangerousness of the culprit, it may impose as a final sentence the most severe punishment provided for one of the criminal offences.

While rendering its final decision, the court shall impose one or more of the ancillary punishments rendered separately for each particular offence.
