KF Bashkimi (Macedonian: ФК Башкими) was a football club, which was played in the town of Kumanovo, North Macedonia. The club was dissolved before the 2008–09 Macedonian First League season, when they folded due to financial reasons.

A successor club which claims rights to Bashkimi's honours and records was established in 2011 under the same name.

But for the first time in the club's history in 2002/03 season they debuted in the First Macedonian League. They played in the league for 5 seasons. A few days before the start of the season 2008/09, despite staying in the competition last season, the club has been terminated because of the huge financial difficulties.[1]
