The stamp is only affixed to an original of the established form and in good condition. A laminated document, a Soviet-era form or one with corrections will not be apostilled: you need a duplicate first.
Under the treaty no legalisation is required
The 1957/1958 treaty between the USSR and Albania on legal assistance in civil, family and criminal matters is in force between Russia and Albania: formally the document must be accepted without a stamp. In practice institutions in Albania ask for an apostille, and an apostille is always accepted. The route is therefore built with one; if the receiving institution confirms in writing that no stamp is needed, the apostille step can be skipped.
