Strengthening Ties with the Macedonian Diaspora: Visit to Croatia and Slovenia

Representatives of Boshnjakovski Law Office, Mr. Vladimir Boshnjakovski and Mr. Alberto Grozdanov, recently visited Croatia and Slovenia with the aim of strengthening ties with the Macedonian diaspora and developing closer cooperation with Macedonian institutions and community organizations abroad.

Meetings with the Macedonian Embassies

During the visit, Mr. Boshnjakovski and Mr. Grozdanov met with representatives of the Embassies of the Republic of North Macedonia in Zagreb and Ljubljana.

The meetings provided an opportunity to discuss issues affecting Macedonian citizens and members of the diaspora living abroad, as well as possibilities for closer cooperation in areas of mutual interest.

For our law office, maintaining strong relationships with Macedonian communities abroad is particularly important. Members of the diaspora frequently encounter legal matters in North Macedonia involving citizenship, inheritance, property, civil status records, business activities, and other cross-border issues.

Celebrating Saints Cyril and Methodius Day

The visit coincided with the celebration of Saints Cyril and Methodius Day, giving it particular cultural and symbolic significance.

In Zagreb, we attended the Holy Liturgy at the Church of St. Zlata of Meglen. The occasion was especially meaningful as it also marked the second anniversary of the opening of the church.

We also attended the Holy Liturgy at the Macedonian Orthodox Church in Ljubljana, together with members of the local Macedonian community.

These gatherings offered an opportunity to meet Macedonians living in Croatia and Slovenia and to experience firsthand the important role that religious and cultural institutions play in preserving community ties, traditions, and connections with North Macedonia.

Meetings with Macedonian Communities in Croatia and Slovenia

During the visit, meetings were also held with Macedonian cultural associations and community representatives in Zagreb, Ljubljana, and Kranj.

The discussions focused on the experiences of Macedonians living abroad, the challenges they face in maintaining legal and administrative ties with North Macedonia, and opportunities for improving cooperation between the diaspora and institutions in the country.

We are grateful to the Macedonian Embassies in Zagreb and Ljubljana for their warm welcome and professionalism, to the Macedonian Orthodox Church for its hospitality, and to the Macedonian cultural associations and community representatives who took the time to meet with us.

Legal Support for the Macedonian Diaspora

The visit reaffirmed the importance of maintaining strong professional, institutional, and personal ties with Macedonian communities abroad.

Boshnjakovski Law Office regularly assists members of the Macedonian diaspora with legal matters in North Macedonia, including:

  • Macedonian citizenship by descent and origin;
  • inheritance and probate proceedings;
  • property ownership and real estate transactions;
  • obtaining and correcting civil status records;
  • recognition of foreign judgments and documents;
  • powers of attorney and representation in North Macedonia;
  • company formation and business investments; and
  • other cross-border legal and administrative matters.

For clients living abroad, many legal procedures in North Macedonia can be handled through a lawyer acting under a power of attorney, significantly reducing the need to travel to the country personally.

Our goal is to provide members of the Macedonian diaspora with a reliable point of contact in North Macedonia and to make dealing with legal and administrative matters in the country as straightforward as possible.
