Questions about funding in North Macedonia

Can Romanian companies and institutions access funding in North Macedonia?

Yes, in three ways. 1) Cross-border programmes fund joint projects by partners from both countries. 2) European Commission calls under programmes with which North Macedonia is associated (Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values, Creative Europe, CUSTOMS, Digital Europe, ERASMUS+, ESC) allow consortia with partners from there. 3) EU-funded institutional Twinning projects are aimed at public administrations in member states, including Romania. The country's national programmes are, as a rule, only for locally registered entities.

Where does the data about North Macedonia come from?

From the European Commission's Funding & Tenders portal (EU delegation calls) and from 2 official sources of cross-border programmes and government agencies, checked daily. The country's status in relation to the EU and its association with programmes are taken from the Commission's official documents.

The list is generated automatically from official sources and does not replace the call guide. Check the conditions and deadlines on the official page before applying. The status in relation to the EU is presented factually, based on the documents of the European institutions.
