AHK North Macedonia – Part of the AHK Network
Our office was established in Skopje in 2000 as a representative office of the Association of German Chambers of Commerce and Industry (DIHK). In early 2017, the office was upgraded from a representative office to a delegation. The jurisdiction of AHK North Macedonia – part of the AHK network – covers North Macedonia, Kosovo, and Albania.

The DMWV is the bilateral non-profit organisation for economic cooperation between Germany and North Macedonia.
