Macedonia, following its independence from Yugoslavia in 1991, made its Paralympic Games début at the 1996 Summer Paralympics in Atlanta, where it sent a single athlete (Branimir Jovanovski) to compete in shooting. The country has competed in every subsequent edition of the Summer Paralympics, with very small delegations. It has never taken part in the Winter Paralympics. The only athletes to have represented Macedonia at the Paralympic Games are Branimir Jovanovski (1996-2004), Vanco Karanfilov (2000-2012) and Olivera Nakovska (2004-2012), all three in shooting events.
At the 2004 Games in Athens, Karanfilov won Macedonia's first Paralympic medal as independent country: a silver in the men's air pistol event (category SH1).
At the 2012 Games in London, Olivera Nakovska-Bikova won Macedonia's first gold Paralympic medal as independent country: a gold medal in women's air pistol event (category SH1), setting new world and Paralympic record at qualifiers for Women's P2-10m Air Pistol-SH1 with 381 points, and also setting new Paralympic finals record for Women's P2-10m Air Pistol-SH1 with 475.7 points.
