North Macedonia's manufacturing and construction sectors are facing a growing domestic labour shortage — companies that apply to the Employment Agency (АВРСМ) for staff often can't fill the roles locally, which is why permits for foreign workers, including Pakistani nationals, are already being issued. Crown Enterprises Overseas Employment sources, trade-tests and processes workers for Macedonian employers, handling all Pakistan-side compliance and coordinating the permit route.

We're an active partner in the corridor, with placements in Strumica and the wider south-east region alongside our local partner network.

The Process

How the North Macedonia work-permit route works.

North Macedonia issues foreign-worker permits through the Employment Agency of the Republic of North Macedonia (АВРСМ). In practice it runs like this:

  1. Labour market test The employer applies to АВРСМ and demonstrates the role can't be filled from the domestic labour market.
  2. Work permit approval Once cleared, the Ministry of Interior processes the residence and work authorisation for the named worker.
  3. Entry visa Where required, the worker obtains the appropriate entry visa via the North Macedonian mission handling Pakistan.
  4. BEOE Protectorate (Pakistan) We complete Protectorate clearance, attestation and medicals in Pakistan in parallel.
  5. Travel & registration The worker travels to North Macedonia and completes local registration to begin work legally.

Timelines and steps here are indicative and move with current North Macedonia immigration rules and individual cases. Crown confirms the live requirements for your specific roles before anything is committed.

Pakistan Side

The compliance we handle in Pakistan.

Every Pakistani worker going to North Macedonia must be processed through the Bureau of Emigration & Overseas Employment (BEOE) and cleared by the Protectorate of Emigrants — it is a legal requirement, and doing it correctly is what separates a compliant deployment from a problem. As a licensed Overseas Employment Promoter (OEP 2869/RWP), we handle Protectorate clearance, attestation, GAMCA/required medicals, police clearance and pre-departure formalities, so your workers arrive legally documented and ready.
