I am a student in France with a 2-year residence permit (titre de séjour). I have a Vietnamese passport.

Do I need visa to go to Macedonia for one week?

The website of Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Macedonia says:

Entry in the Republic of Macedonia for Schengen Visa Holders

Citizens of the following countries are not required to have entry visa for the Republic of Macedonia:

  1. EU member countries and signatories of the Schengen Agreement have the right to enter the Republic of Macedonia with a valid ID card.
  2. Third countries with permanent stay in an EU member country or signatory country of the Schengen Agreement may stay in the Republic of Macedonia for up to 15 (fifteen) days upon every entry to the territory of the Republic of Macedonia, and the total amount of the subsequent stays in the Republic of Macedonia must not be longer than 3 (three) months within a six-months period, starting from the date of the first entry.
  3. Third countries with multiple entry short stay Schengen visa type C valid at least 5 (five) days beyond the intended stay in the Republic of Macedonia may stay in the Republic of Macedonia for up to 15 (fifteen) days upon every entry to the territory of the Republic of Macedonia, and the total amount of the subsequent stays in the Republic of Macedonia must not be longer than 3 (three) months within a six-months period, starting from the date of the first entry.

I was in a very similar situation, yet my passport is Colombian. I was allowed entrance into Macedonia and all the Balcans region (except Serbia) with my Schengen student visa (titre de sejour).

You can enter Macedonia with a PERMANENT Residence Permit only, which does not have expiry day on it. I was denied entry to Macedonia and that was they told me.
