North Macedonia – formerly known as just Macedonia until the 12th of June 2018, when Greece and (North) Macedonia made an agreement for (North) Macedonia to change its name.
That agreement was implemented 8 months later.
Formerly part of Yugoslavia, like all West Balkan countries, it is a cheap travel destination.
With cheap but tasty food, affordable accommodation & relatively safe, it is understandable why the country attracts many tourists.
From a rich history to impressive mountains, North Macedonia has a lot to see and explore.
You probably want to share your experience online to show off… I meant to share your travels, which you should – it is your trip overall.
However, you should know that international roaming can be super expensive.
Some travelers come back home in a good mood only for it to be ruined by an excessive international roaming bill – do not let this happen to you.
Luckily, there is one way to stay connected for low rates, which is by getting local SIM cards when traveling.
This would be buying a SIM card in North Macedonia.
And everyone can do so without restrictions.
So how much will a North Macedonian SIM card cost you?
You can get a Macedonian SIM card for 100 MKD (1.75 USD) from Lycamobile, 399 MKD to 1199 MKD (6.95-20.80 USD) from Makedonski Telekom, or 299 MKD (5.20 MKD) from A1 in their stores or from resellers, including gas stations. SIM cards are sold at Skopje International Airport (SKP).
Those numbers are not too bad. But you will be surprised how cheap mobile data is in North Macedonia.
But before we get there, there are some things you should know about buying a SIM card in this country, so…
In this guide, I will go over everything you need to know about buying a SIM card in North Macedonia. Let's do this.

What is the Best SIM Card in North Macedonia?
So, who are all these mobile operators and what options are available for you?
North Macedonia has two mobile operators and one Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) offering prepaid services easily accessible to tourists:
- Makedonski Telekom
- A1 Macedonia
- Lycamobile Macedonia (A1 Macedonia MVNO)
In this guide, I will stick to the mobile operators and the most popular MVNO, all in bold above, to limit the length of this guide (but also not to overwhelm you with all the options available).
But if you are interested in getting a SIM card from one of the unbolded MVNOs, you would have to do the research yourself for the time being. I stopped actively testing and reviewing MVNOs to spend time reviewing travel eSIMs instead, like the ones for North Macedonia.
Anyone living in or visiting North Macedonia can buy a North Macedonian SIM card with no real restrictions, but you do have to comply with the North Macedonian SIM card registration regulations.

Which, in this case, is only showing your passport (or European Union ID if you have one) at the point of sale.
Where Can You Buy a North Macedonian SIM Card (+Costs)?
You can get a Macedonian SIM card in Makedonski Telekom and A1 stores. Resellers, like gas stations, also sell SIM cards (especially for Lycamobile). They are sometimes sold at Skopje International Airport (SKP).
You can expect to pay the following for North Macedonian SIM cards:
- Makedonski Telekom: 399 MKD (regular), 499 MKD (data-only) & 1299 MKD (regular)
- A1 Macedonia: 299 MKD
- Lycamobile Macedonia: free, but top-up of at least 100 MKD required. Else starting from 100 MKD
Note that SIM cards can be more expensive than those listed above when purchased at an airport.

(Travel) eSIMs for North Macedonia
In recent years, (travel) eSIMs have become extremely popular.
Especially after Apple made iPhones (14- & 15 series) sold in the United States eSIM-only, forcing its users to use eSIMs – even when abroad.
As a result, the adoption of eSIM technology by mobile operators worldwide rose impressively quickly.
Currently, only Makedonski Telekom offers eSIMs to prepaid customers.
But if you purchase an eSIM from any of these mobile operators, you must comply with North Macedonia's SIM card registration regulations.
Suppose you do not wish to do so for privacy reasons (for example) or want to be connected immediately without paying for an overpriced SIM card (or eSIM) sold at a North Macedonian airport. In that case, you may consider getting a travel eSIM for North Macedonia.
In my North Macedonia eSIM buying guide, I analyze various eSIM options of eSIM providers I have tested extensively worldwide (even in North Macedonia).
Surprisingly, travel eSIMs can be cheaper than a North Macedonian SIM card or eSIM in specific scenarios.
Moreover, Europe-wide and global eSIM options are also available at competitive prices (without having to deal with expensive international roaming rates).
In this North Macedonia SIM card buying guide (the one you are reading), I will stick to the local SIM cards and eSIM, but you can read my North Macedonia eSIM buying guide for more information about travel eSIMs covering the country.
But here is a quick overview already + applicable discount codes if you are interested in purchasing a travel eSIM for North Macedonia:
- Airalo: Matka Mobile (North Macedonia only) & Discover+ (130 countries worldwide + up to 200 worldwide minutes & 200 worldwide SMS)
- Alosim: North Macedonia
- Nomad: North Macedonia & Global (North Macedonia only) & Global (109 or 139 countries, depending on the variant)
Here are some discount codes to sweeten the deal:
- Airalo: APR15 for 15% off (if you have never bought an Airalo eSIM before). Otherwise, APR10 for 10% off (for existing users) – only the first 3000 users can redeem either discount code)
- Alosim: PTW for 5% off (as many times as you wish for as many eSIMs as you want)
- Nomad: ADU123 for 3 USD off (on your first-ever Nomad order only)
Once again, check out my North Macedonia eSIM buying guide to learn more about these eSIM options.
The eSIM guide is as comprehensive as this SIM card buying guide, but it solely focuses on travel eSIMs (while the guide you are reading focuses on local SIM cards and eSIMs for prepaid users (where applicable).
