ry into the Republic of Slovenia
The ways and conditions of entry into the Republic of Slovenia (RS) differ with regards to
whether you are a citizen of a EEA Member State (EEA citizens are nationals of EU Mem-
ber States, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein) or Switzerland or a third-country national (all
other states).
EEA Citizens and Swiss Nationals
A national of another EEA Member State or Switzerland may enter the RS with a valid per-
sonal identification card or passport, and does not require an entry permit (visa) or residen-
ce permit, regardless of the purpose of entering and residing in the RS (including entry for
employment, study, self-employment or residence purposes).
Residence Registration Certificate
An EEA citizen or Swiss national may apply for a certificate immediately after entering the
Republic of Slovenia, although for the first three months after entry, an EEA citizen or Swiss
national may reside in the Republic of Slovenia without registering residence. However, if
the period of residence exceeds three months, they must register the residence (i.e. submit
an application for the issue of a residence registration certificate) at the administrative unit
in the region where they reside before the expiry of the authorised three-month residence
period. The application for a certificate should be submitted at the administrative unit in the
region where they reside.
For the purposes of studies or other forms of education an EEA citizen or Swiss national may
be issued a residence registration certificate if they have:
• a valid personal identity card or passport,
• a document attesting acceptance by an educational institution for the purposes of studies
or other forms of education,
• a document attesting sufficient funds (the student’s statement of having sufficient funds
shall be regarded as appropriate evidence) and
• appropriate health insurance.
