Macedonia tried to bid by themselves originally, but would later join up with their Balkan neighbors from Slovenia and Montenegro. [4] [5] [6] [7] President of the Macedonian federation, Zhivko Mukaetov, was quoted saying: [8]

"I am also optimistic about the 2022 European championship organisation. The idea is to perform together and try to bring the championship to Skopje, Ljubljana and Podgorica. I think the performance together, regionally, obviously produces results and I think we have not good chances, but great chances to organize it. It will be a big plus for Macedonia, I think we will affirm the country and handball in a very positive way. Women's handball is currently has lower development than the male counterpart, so this will be an injection to get a level at least close to men's handball."

Throughout early 2018, they further promoted their bid, including going to Croatia for the 2018 European Men's Handball Championship. [9] [3] Their slogan is We Can Handball. [10]

In April 2018, concerns were brought up about their bid as the venues in Celje and Podgorica were deemed to have needed a lot of renovation for the championship. [11]

The main round would be in Skopje and Ljubljana, with the final weekend at the Arena Stožice in Ljubljana.
