Indonesia to North Macedonia visa requirements

Yes. Indonesian ordinary passport holders need a visa to visit North Macedonia for tourism. There is no eVisa or visa on arrival; you must apply in advance at a North Macedonian embassy or consulate. North Macedonia is not in the Schengen Area. As of mid-2026, holders of an Indonesian ordinary passport must obtain a short-stay (Type C) visa before traveling to North Macedonia for tourism. North Macedonia does not operate an eVisa platform or grant visa on arrival to Indonesian nationals, so applications are made in person at a North Macedonian diplomatic-consular mission (the nearest accredited mission for Indonesia is typically the Embassy in Beijing or another regional mission, as there is no resident embassy in Jakarta). The Type C visa permits a stay of up to 90 days within any 180-day period and the standard consular fee is EUR 60. Applications must be lodged no earlier than six months and at least 15 days before the intended trip. Important exception: travelers who already hold a valid multiple-entry Type C Schengen visa, or a valid multiple-entry US, UK or Canadian visa (the latter under a temporary measure running 1 January to 31 December 2026), or permanent/temporary residence in an EU or Schengen state, may enter North Macedonia visa-free for up to 15 days per entry. North Macedonia is an EU candidate but is NOT yet in the Schengen Area, so ETIAS and the Schengen 90/180 system do not apply to it directly; its own 90/180 rule governs stays.
