MES — North Macedonia e-invoicing

Invoicerr does not support North Macedonia

No North Macedonia data file exists anywhere in this repository — no country policy, no identifiers, no tax system, no transmission channel. Nothing on this page is implemented. It is here so that someone who wants North Macedonia support knows what adding it would involve. The countries Invoicerr does cover are listed in the country directory.

North Macedonia's e-invoicing runs through MES (the Macedonian Electronic Invoice System), regulated by the Public Revenue Office (PRO). The mandate covers both B2G and B2B transactions.

What supporting North Macedonia would involve​

SystemMES (Macedonian Electronic Invoice System)
AuthorityPublic Revenue Office (PRO)
FormatA national XML schema (the MES schema, UN/CEFACT-based). No provider in backend/src/modules/documents/formats/ builds it today.
TransmissionMES. No transport in backend/src/modules/documents/transports/ talks to it today.
Inherited, unverified

Carried over from an earlier research pass in this repository's own history, and never checked against a primary source. Leads, not facts — confirm every line before writing it into a data file.

  • B2G e-invoicing cited as mandatory since 2015, with progressive extension to B2B from the same year.
  • Model described as clearance, with invoice validation through MES.

Which catalogues a contributor would add​

Adding a country is data, not code. Adding a country is the procedure and the contract each file has to satisfy; this is only the shopping list for North Macedonia.

  • country-policy/data/mk.json — which document actions North Macedonia allows. Start here: without this file every action is refused with a 403, naming the country.
  • country-identifiers/data/mk.json — which national identifier a party must carry.
  • tax/tax-systems/data/mk.json and vat-rates/data/mk.json — the tax kind, and the rate ladder offered on an invoice line.
  • correction-routes/data/mk.json — all eleven canonical correction routes, unverified where unresearched, never omitted.
  • b2g-routing/data/mk.json — the channel and format a North Macedonian public buyer requires.
  • transports/channel-policy/data/mk.json — whether a channel is legally required of a seller established in North Macedonia, and from what date.
  • archive/retention/data/mk.json — how long an archived document is kept, and what the duration is counted from.

Add mentions/, content-requirements/, country-fields/, reporting/ and domestic-reverse-charge/ only where the law actually gives them content.

Data alone will not finish the job here: MES is a transmission channel this repository does not implement, and its XML schema has no format provider. Both are code, not a JSON file — see When a country needs more than a file.

Want North Macedonia supported?​

Check the open compliance issues first. If there is no issue for North Macedonia, open one and name which of the files above you need — a request that names one mechanism is far more actionable than "please add North Macedonia".
