North Macedonia has become a key transit country for migrants, including workers from Nepal, traveling to Western Europe, highlighting challenges faced during transit.
North Macedonia is increasingly recognized as a significant transit country for vulnerable migrants on their journey toward Western Europe. Among these migrants are workers from Nepal and other nations seeking better employment opportunities abroad. The country’s strategic location makes it a common stopover point; however, migrants often face difficulties including inadequate access to services and protection during transit. While North Macedonia is not their final destination, the conditions encountered there have raised concerns among international organizations about the migrants’ well-being and rights. Official sources from diplomatic missions emphasize the importance of safe and legal migration pathways and continue to advocate for enhanced cooperation between countries to support migrant workers. This situation underscores the need for policies addressing the vulnerabilities of migrants in transit and for improved bilateral agreements regarding labor migration and migrant protection.
