What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by North Macedonia and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Macedonian citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
Holidays and closures
Like most offices in Croatia, the honorary consulate closes on public holidays – including Easter Monday, the Assumption (15 August), All Saints’ Day, Remembrance Day (18 November), Christmas and St Stephen’s Day. The Macedonian national day, 8 September, normally means a closure too.
