Summary/Abstract: In this article I will try to give an overview of the way in which the criminal legislation in the Republic of Macedonia criminalizes the acts of human trafficking and smuggling of emigrants.In the last few years, worldwide, even in the Republic of North Macedonia, the topic is relevant with migrants, who are increasingly migrating from different countries in the world, mostly due to the wars that are fought in those areas or from an economic point of view. In the Republic of North Macedonia, the efforts to follow and implement the international norms in this area are continuous, which has ratified the most important multilateral agreements in the fight against crime.The purpose of the paper is to investigate whether in practice the distinction between trafficking in human beings and smuggling of migrants is effective and easy to establish and manage.The contribution of the research will be prevention and fight against migrant smuggling, as well as promoting cooperation between the member states for that purpose.
