Winter equipment in North Macedonia: when it is mandatory and what the law requires - In North Macedonia winter equipment is mandatory from 15 November to 15 March. Passenger cars up to 3.5 tonnes need winter tires on all four wheels with at least 4 mm of tread, or summer tires with at least 4 mm of tread plus chains for the drive wheels. The fine is the denar equivalent of 45 euros. This season it starts on 15 November 2026.
M+S or 3PMSF: winter tire markings explained - M+S (mud and snow) means the tread is designed for mud and snow, but no test is required for the marking. A tire only gets the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) if it passes a standard snow test. In North Macedonia both markings count as winter tires.
Tire pressure in cold weather: how much and when to check - Tire pressure drops when it gets cold, by roughly 0.1 bar for every 10 °C. So in winter check it at least once a month, with cold tires, and inflate to the vehicle manufacturer's values, which are on the sticker in the door frame, inside the fuel filler flap or in the handbook.
