UPDATE: Registration is remarkably easy in Ohrid (unlike in Skopje with its many police stations, where it’s frequently unclear where you’re supposed to go): there’s only a single police station in the city, where I was directed to the nearby “Servis”, some administrative Kind of place. There I showed my ID card, and a man filled out most of the registration card (same Kind as in Serbia). I then paid 40 denars for it.
I didn’t Need a Hotel booking confirmation stating the address – just memorised it and stated it to the servis man verbally
Went to the police station, where I presented my ID card+registration card. The guy tore the card in two and stamped the bottom, smaller part.
However, even though I told him the departure date, I had to insist on him writing it (the “servis” staff utterly refused to). If they don’t, you’ll have to come back to de-register.
He also forgot to put his signature on the bottom half (in addition to the stamp), so I had to remind him of that too.
I stayed in Skopje, Macedonia last week. No mention of registration was made at any point, and the border officials did not ask for one when leaving.
I stayed in the Ibis hotel, so I would have thought that being a very large hotel chain they would not let their staff be lazy and not follow the local laws.
I have also been to Serbia in the past and did get a registration card.
When i stayed in the country, i was not handed any related document, neither was i asked at the border for it, in both occasions i crossed the borders (from Kosovo and to Bulgaria) by land.
Ps. I stayed at a hostel in Skopje.
