Discusses the legal requirements/options for joint venture/licensing in this market.
Last Published: 7/31/2019

North Macedonia permits, but does not require joint ventures.  Joint ventures, including between foreign and local investors, are increasingly common.  Joint ventures are subject to the provisions of Law on Protection of Competition, which regulates the concentration of economic activity. Licensing is not widely used in North Macedonia outside of the pharmaceutical industry.
