From today, winter equipment is mandatory in vehicles in Macedonia

From November 15, 2026, drivers must carry winter equipment regardless of weather conditions. The legal requirement remains in force until March 15, 2027.

According to LAMM, traffic on state roads is moving without disruption, although the roads are wet. Outside urban areas, traffic is moderate, while there are no long waits to enter or leave the country at border crossings on the Macedonian side.

LAMM urges drivers to adjust their speed, obey road signs and drive carefully. Particular caution is needed on roads through valleys, river valleys and gorges, where landslides may occur, especially on the Katllanovë-Veles, Mavrovë-Dibër-Strugë, Vinicë-Berovë and Koçan-Dellçevë stretches.
