It is covalent and the bonds are polar covalent. This is because of the difference in electronegativity between aluminium and bromide.

Why AlBr3 is ionic compound?

AlBr3 is not an ionic compound. The electronegativity difference between Al and Br is only 1.35 too low for an ionic compound to be formed.There are molecules of Al2Br6 present in the crystal lattice. These dimers are also present in molten AlBr3 and in the gaseous where it dissociates at high temperatures into molecular AlBr3. In the crystal the aluminium atoms are 4 coordinate with four bromine atoms tetrahedrally placed around each aluminium atom. This allows Al to achieve the octet. The bonding is polar covalent.
