About the Macedonian denar
The Macedonian denar (MKD) is the currency of North Macedonia, Albania’s neighbour and home to a large Albanian community. Trade and travel across the border — Pogradec, Struga, Ohrid, Dibër — keep the denar in circulation at Albanian exchange offices. North Macedonia’s central bank holds the denar steady against the euro, so MKD/ALL mostly follows EUR/ALL.
What moves the MKD/ALL rate
- EUR/ALL — the main driver, because the denar is held steady against the euro
- The policy of the National Bank of North Macedonia
- Trade and travel between the two countries

Why does the denar rate move so little?
North Macedonia’s central bank has kept the denar close to an unchanged rate against the euro for many years. Almost all movement in MKD/ALL comes from the euro moving against the lek.
