List of Catholic dioceses in North Macedonia
(Redirected from List of Catholic dioceses in Macedonia)
The Catholic Church in North Macedonia has no national episcopal conference, given its one bishop (for one Latin diocese and one Eastern Catholic diocese), which participates in the International Episcopal Conference of Saints Cyril and Methodius (as do Balkanic neighbours Kosovo, Montenegro and Serbia, all also former Yugoslavian constituent republics).
There formally is an Apostolic Nunciature as papal diplomatic representation (embassy-level) to Macedonia, but it's vested in the Apostolic Nunciature to Bulgaria in its capital Sofia
