Most foreign passport holders require a Schengen visa to enter Slovenia for tourism, business, transit, or short-term visits. A Slovenia entry permit allows lawful entry into Slovenia as well as travel within other Schengen countries.  Travelers visiting for leisure or holidays can apply for a Slovenia Tourist Visa, which typically allows stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period.

Applicants must generally meet the following criteria:

• Submit confirmed travel plans, flight bookings, and accommodation details.
