In the summer of 2013, Hallaçi was part of Kukësi's squad that reached the play-off round of UEFA Europa League.[23] He played 7 matches, collecting 630 minutes as the team eliminated Flora in the first round,[24] Sarajevo[25][26] in the second round and Metalurh Donetsk in the third round before being eliminated by Süper Lig outfit Trabzonspor in the play-off.[27] They however become the first Albanian club to reach play-off of an UEFA club competition.[28]

On 31 August 2013, he agreed a new contract, signing until June 2014 with an option of a further one.[29] In October 2013, Hallaçi gave up his duties by handing his captaincy, making Progni the club's captain for the remainder of the season.[30] During the 2013–14 season Hallaçi played a personal best 46 matches in all competitions, as Kukësi finished runner-up once again in championship and lost the Albanian cup final to Flamurtari Vlorë.[31] He was also sent-off in the last moments, leaving the team with 9 players, receiving his first ever red-card with Kukësi.[32]

Following that incident, UEFA awarded Legia Warsaw with a 3–0 win.[37][38] In the second leg, Kukësi lost again and was eliminated 0–4 on aggregate.[39] With 15 matches in Europa League, Hallaçi become the Kukësi player with most UEFA appearances.[40]

Following the departure of captain Renato Malota to Partizani Tirana, Hallaçi was renamed the captain of the team.[43]

He played 33 matches, missing only one as Kukësi clinched the title on 20 May 2017 after winning on controversial fashion versus Skënderbeu Korçë.[44] It was also his 200th appearance for Kukësi in all competitions.[45] With only four yellow cards, he had the best disciplinary record which earned him "Fair Play" award.[46]
