Relocating to another country is a blend of thrill and paperwork. While the excitement of a fresh start is unparalleled, the administrative steps can seem daunting. At Digital Nomad Macedonia, we are determined to take the complexity out of the equation and streamline the entire journey for you.

1. The Initial Consultation

We start our collaborative process with a detailed, no-cost consultation. In this pivotal discussion, our seasoned legal team will map out the entire immigration landscape for you. Together, we’ll identify any hurdles and lay out an efficient strategy to obtain your temporary residence permit — akin to the “digital nomad visa” that many digital nomads may be familiar with in other locales.

2. Gathering Essentials: Documentation Preparation

The foundation of a successful application is thorough documentation. While Macedonia is your destination, you don’t need to be here just yet. In fact, gathering the required documents is often smoother from your home turf. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Notarised copy of your passport: The key to your international identity.
  • Original or notarised confirmation of your formal education: Highlighting your academic credentials.
  • Health insurance proof, if available: Ensuring you’re covered from day one.
  • No criminal records certification from your home country: An essential for international relocations.
  • Power of attorney for the application process: Letting us act on your behalf.
  • Documentation confirming your Macedonian accommodation: A crucial detail for any residency application.

3. Streamlining the Process: Legal Formalities

Once your documents are in our hands, we start the administrative preparation. Our proficient team provides precise legal translations of your documents into Macedonian, ensuring every detail aligns with local requirements. With this preparatory phase complete, we then submit your application for temporary residence.

4. Finalising the Details: In-Person Steps

While our team handles the bulk of the process, presence is sometimes needed. After an affirmative confirmation from the Ministry of Interior, we’ll accompany you for a straightforward visit to get your photograph for the temporary ID card. A short wait of about two weeks, and a concluding visit will see you holding your ID card, your passport to live in North Macedonia.

The Digital Nomad Macedonia Difference: Our commitment is twofold: clear guidance and unwavering support. Our expertise ensures that every step, no matter how intricate, is made understandable and manageable. When you choose to journey with us, you’re not just selecting a service; you’re choosing a dedicated partner. Let’s journey together into this exciting chapter of your life.
