To obtain a visa, a third-country national must submit a relevant visa application form and
required documentation, which can be different to that in their local country. The list of
required documentation is posted on the webpage of the diplomatic mission or consular
post, which has the authority to issue visas. During the procedure, the applicant must also
present a guarantee letter, authenticated at the nearest administrative unit.
Type D
Type D or a national visa gives a permission to enter and stay in the country for the duration
of more than 90 days and less than one year. This visa may be issued to certain categories of
third-country nationals, which are defined in Article 20 of the Aliens Act. Third-country nati-
onals who do not require a visa may also apply for it. Type D visa can not be extended. The
holder of a visa can apply for a residence permit directly at an administrative unit.
Holders of a type C visa, issued by one of the Contracting Parties to the Convention imple-
menting the Schengen Agreement may, during the visa validity period, enter the Republic of
Slovenia and stay in it as long as the total length of their stay in the territories of all the Con-
tracting Parties, except in the territory of the Contracting Party which issued the visa, does
not extend beyond 90 days in any 180-day period, or until the expiry of the visa if the visa
should expire before the end of the 90 days period. The remaining number of days left in the
Schengen Area, can be calculated by using the online calculator.
A holder of a residence permit issued by one of the Contracting Parties to the Convention

ting Party which issued the residence permit, does not extend beyond 90 days in any 180-
day period, or until the expiry of the residence permit if the permit should expire before the
