Czech Republic: visa decisions in North Macedonia

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 515 | 91 | 48 | 9.3% | 87.9% |

In 2025, the Czech Republic’s embassy and consulates in North Macedonia (Skopje) received 112 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 111. The refusal rate was 0.9%. The refusal rate fell by 1.6 points from 2.5% in 2024. Applications fell by 8% compared with 2024 (122).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 5.2% of the applications lodged in North Macedonia that year. the Czech Republic’s consulates worldwide refused 14.2%. The Czech Republic was the 5th most applied-for Schengen state in North Macedonia.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in North Macedonia, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
