Macedonia Post, officially JSC Post of North Macedonia – Skopje, is the national postal operator of North Macedonia. It provides postal services through its network across the country, handling letters, parcels and other postal items for individuals and businesses.
Its services include domestic parcel delivery, small-package services, registered and insured postal items, ordinary parcels and express mail. Macedonia Post also provides universal postal services, allowing customers throughout North Macedonia to send documents, merchandise and packages through local post offices and delivery units.
For customers who need faster transportation, Macedonia Post operates EMS express services within North Macedonia. The postal network accepts EMS items at post-office counters, while collection arrangements are also available through the EMS service. Recorded postal items receive identifiers that allow customers to Track their movement from acceptance through processing and delivery.
Macedonia Post operates locally throughout North Macedonia. Although the postal operator also processes international postal traffic and incoming items from foreign postal networks, this does not mean that Macedonia Post operates its own local delivery network in those foreign countries. International shipments are transferred between postal operators, while Macedonia Post handles the relevant part of the journey within North Macedonia.
How Macedonia Post shipment tracking works
Macedonia Post Tracking is available for recorded postal items that receive a unique tracking identifier when they are accepted into the postal system. These can include registered letters, insured letters, ordinary parcels, insured parcels, express-mail items and other recorded shipments.
To Track a Macedonia Post package with 4Tracking, enter the complete tracking number into the tracking field and start the search. Package tracking can then show available postal events such as acceptance, processing, transfer to another postal facility, arrival at the destination office, an unsuccessful delivery attempt or final delivery.
For incoming international items, Macedonia Post states that the appearance of MKSKP(X) in the tracking information indicates that the item has entered North Macedonia. It is then processed through the Main Postal Traffic Centre, where processing can include examination by the customs authorities when applicable. After processing, the item is dispatched to the destination post office responsible for delivery.
If delivery is completed, Tracking information can show the postal code of the destination office together with a delivered or handed-over status. If delivery cannot be completed, the system may record that an advice notice was left so the recipient can collect the item from the appropriate post office.
Macedonia Post tracking number formats
Macedonia Post officially uses the Universal Postal Union S10 format for recorded postal items. The identifier contains 13 characters: two letters representing the service type, followed by nine digits and two letters representing the country of origin. For items originating in North Macedonia, the final two letters are MK.
The official Macedonia Post tracking information lists service-prefix examples including RR, RA, RB, VV, VA, VB, CP and EE. Therefore, supported format examples for items originating in North Macedonia can be represented as RR#########MK, RA#########MK, RB#########MK, VV#########MK, VA#########MK, VB#########MK, CP#########MK and EE#########MK, where each # represents a digit.
Always enter all 13 characters when using package tracking. Spaces, missing characters or a mistyped letter or digit can prevent the shipment from being identified. The final country letters may be different from MK when the shipment originated with a foreign postal operator and later entered the Macedonia Post network.
Macedonia Post delivery times
For postal items within North Macedonia that fall under the universal postal service, Macedonia Post publishes domestic transmission standards of D+1 or D+3, meaning delivery or transmission is normally targeted within one day or within three working days depending on the applicable service and route.
Macedonia Post also publishes faster standards for domestic EMS services. Its same-day EMS service in Skopje has a stated delivery period of three hours, while the same-day service across North Macedonia is listed at up to 12 hours. The "today for tomorrow" EMS service has a stated deadline of up to 12:00 on the next working day.
These timeframes should be treated as service standards rather than a prediction for every individual package. Macedonia Post notes that certain days or delays are not counted normally, including non-working days, delays caused by incorrect or incomplete addressing and circumstances outside normal postal control. Incoming international shipments can also require customs processing, so their total delivery time cannot be estimated from the domestic D+1 or D+3 standards alone.
How to contact Macedonia Post about a shipment
If Tracking has stopped updating, a delivery attempt was unsuccessful or a package appears delayed, customers can contact Macedonia Post directly. The official contact information lists +389 02 3105-205 for shipment complaints and info@posta.com.mk for questions, complaints and other postal-service enquiries. The general administration telephone number is +389 02 3 105 105.
For EMS shipment information, Macedonia Post provides the short call-centre number 15000. When contacting the carrier, have the complete tracking number available along with relevant sender, recipient and shipment details so the postal staff can identify the item more easily.
Customers can also use the contact and enquiry options on the official Macedonia Post website or contact the appropriate regional postal centre. If 4Tracking shows that the package has reached a particular destination office, contacting that office or Macedonia Post with the tracking number can help clarify collection or delivery arrangements.
Frequently asked questions about Macedonia Post package tracking issues
Why is my Macedonia Post tracking number not showing any results?
First check that the complete 13-character identifier was entered correctly. Recorded Macedonia Post items use the S10 structure of two letters, nine digits and two country-code letters. A newly accepted shipment may also need time before its first electronic event becomes visible.
What does MKSKP(X) mean in Macedonia Post Tracking?
For an incoming international postal item, Macedonia Post uses MKSKP(X) in its tracking information to indicate that the shipment has entered North Macedonia and is being processed through the Main Postal Traffic Centre. Customs examination may form part of this processing when required.
Why does my Tracking show that an advice notice was left?
This generally means that delivery was attempted but the item was not successfully handed to the recipient. Macedonia Post can leave a notice indicating that the shipment is available at the destination post office. The item can remain there for the prescribed retention period before being returned if it is not collected.
Can every Macedonia Post postal item be tracked?
No. Macedonia Post's tracking system is intended for recorded postal items that have been assigned a unique S10 tracking identifier. An ordinary postal item without a trackable identifier will not provide the same event-by-event package tracking information.
How long should a domestic Macedonia Post package take?
For domestic items covered by the universal postal service, Macedonia Post publishes D+1 or D+3 service standards. EMS has separate faster standards, including same-day and next-working-day options. Actual delivery can take longer when exceptions such as address problems, non-working days or other disruptions apply.
What should I do if my Macedonia Post package has stopped updating?
Continue checking the tracking number on 4Tracking for new postal events. If there has been no meaningful update beyond the expected service period, contact Macedonia Post and provide the complete tracking number. For shipment complaints, the carrier lists +389 02 3105-205, while general postal enquiries and complaints can be sent to info@posta.com.mk.
