State Department: Macedonia - Caution, June 12, 1992
Macedonia - Caution
June 12, 1992
The Department of State advises travelers to Macedonia that
political and economic changes in the region make travel there
difficult and potentially dangerous. Travelers entering or leaving
Macedonia by its land border with Greece may experience delays.
Delays may also be experienced at the Serbian-Macedonian border,
especially by Americans of ethnic Albanian descent. Although
private and business travelers continue to visit Macedonia without
incident, a deteriorating economic situation has led to an increase
in crime. Shortages of food and fuel may occur.
The U.S. does not have a diplomatic or consular mission in
Macedonia. The USIA information center in Skopje is open but its
staff does not perform consular work. American citizens needing
information or assistance should contact the U.S. Embassy in
Belgrade located at Kneza Milosa 50, telephone 645-655. U.S.
citizens should register with the U.S. Embassy.
No. 92-123
This travel advisory replaces the travel advisory for Yugoslavia
dated February 21, 1992, to reflect information specific to travel
in Macedonia.
