The citizens of EU Member States, Schengen States and Serbia may enter and stay up to three months within a period of six months with a valid identity card. Macedonia and other CEFTA parties, except Moldova, apply visa-free regimes to each other.

1. Visa А – Airport Transit
2. Visa B – Transit (maximum allowed stay of 5 days)
3. Visa C – Short stay (stay up to three months within a period of six months)
4. Visa D – Long stay (single entry for stay up to 30 days for purposes of employment, education, etc., which should be followed with temporary residence permit)

Visas B, C, and D are issued upon a visa application made by a foreigner to be submitted exclusively at the diplomatic or consular mission of the Republic of Macedonia. A foreigner is to submit his/her visa application in person at the diplomatic or consular mission of the Republic of Macedonia in their country of origin, or the country where the person concerned possesses a residence permit and there is a diplomatic or consular mission of the Republic of Macedonia. Only in specific cases, the application for visa may be submitted in an alternate way that is in accordance with the legal provisions.
