    North Macedonian standard ordinary biometric passports: five French overseas waivers

    Every currently valid standard ordinary passport of the Republic of North Macedonia satisfies the biometric condition in the five separate current French territorial Annex II waivers.

    • This is an ordinary short-visitor passport baseline only. The current MFA passport service states a maximum validity of 10 years for age 27+, 5 years for ages 4–27, and 2 years below age 4.
    • The official current civil-document record says all North Macedonian passports have been biometric since April 2012. Therefore a non-biometric standard ordinary passport could not remain valid after April 2022; the 2026 baseline is biometric.
    • Since 13 February 2024, only passports bearing the name ‘Republic of North Macedonia’ are valid for international travel. Earlier ‘Republic of Macedonia’ passports are not part of the current ordinary-passport baseline, even if retained to show travel history or valid visas.
    • The MFA says passport applicants provide a photograph, two fingerprints and a handwritten digital signature; applicants under 12 are not fingerprinted. That child enrolment exception does not establish a separate non-biometric ordinary-passport class.
    • The Interior Ministry's CSCA page confirms Ministry-issued biometric travel documents. Emergency, temporary, group, diplomatic, service, refugee, alien and other special travel documents are not classified by this policy.
    • Each cited French territorial Annex II separately limits the waiver to a biometric passport. French Guiana, Réunion and Mayotte permit stays up to 90 days per 180 days; French Polynesia and New Caledonia permit three months per six months, subject to a more favourable agreement. Activity, residence, entry-route and final-admission requirements remain applicable.
