Skopje, 13 February 2024 (MIA) – Ministry of Foreign Affairs informed Tuesday afternoon that our diplomatic and consular missions have sufficient emergency travel documents available for citizens to return to the country, and that these will be issued without charging a consular fee.

Ministry of Foreign Affairs also announced that the delivery of travel documents is being facilitated, with the option for them to be delivered via express mail.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and diplomatic-consular missions have not received any reports of citizens encountering problems while traveling with emergency travel documents or other documents issued by the Republic of North Macedonia, the Foreign Ministry said in a press release.
