Slovenia Digital Nomad Visa: Available November 2025

On November 21, 2025, the official Slovenia digital nomad visa will become available, allowing remote workers and their family members to live in the country for up to 12 months. 

The Slovenia digital nomad visa is non-renewable. However, remote workers may reapply six months from the expiration date of their previous digital nomad visa. 

There will be multiple ways to submit the Slovenia digital nomad visa application. These include applying in the country as a tourist, at a Slovenian embassy or consulate, or online. 

Slovenia is the latest country in Europe to join in the official welcoming of digital nomads to spend an extended period. It joins popular destinations such as Spain, Portugal, Greece, Malta, and Hungary. 

Nomads Embassy will update this article as more information is released about the Slovenia digital nomad visa. 

What is a Digital Nomad Visa?

Digital nomad visas allow remote workers (and sometimes their family members) to temporarily live abroad. 

With more than 50 countries offering digital nomad visas, they have become a unique opportunity for location-independent workers to experience a new culture and life abroad. Some of these digital nomad visas can even lead to permanent residency and eventually citizenship. 

It’s important to understand that a digital nomad visa does not allow the main applicant to participate in the local business economy. This means they cannot apply for local jobs. In some cases, family members are allowed to work and study while living there. 

To be eligible, the main applicant must work either as an employee, freelancer, or business owner of entities established outside of the country in which they wish to apply for a digital nomad visa. 

Slovenia Digital Nomad Visa Eligibility Requirements

At this time, the official eligibility requirements for Slovenia’s digital nomad visa have not be released. However, we can assume that applicants should meet the following criteria:

• Valid Passport – You must have a valid non-EU/EEA passport
• Work Remotely – You must work remotely as an employee, freelancer, or business owner for entities established outside of Slovenia
• Minimum Income Requirement – The income requirement has not been announced, but we can assume there will be one
• Clean Criminal Record – Most digital nomad visas require applicants to present a clean criminal background check
• International Health Insurance – You will likely need an international health insurance policy for the duration of your stay in Slovenia

We will update these eligibility requirements as they are announced. 

How to Apply for Slovenia’s Digital Nomad Visa

While the official application process for the Slovenia digital nomad visa still needs to be announced, we know that there will be three methods to submit your application. 

1. Applicants may visit Slovenia as tourists and submit their application to the local authorities
2. Applicants may visit a Slovenian consulate or embassy to submit their applications
3. There may be an online platform to submit digital nomad visa applications

Once the application process is confirmed, we will update this section. 

Slovenia for Digital Nomads

Slovenia is quickly becoming a hidden gem for digital nomads seeking a beautiful, affordable, and well-connected base in Europe. Tucked between Italy, Austria, Croatia, and Hungary, Slovenia offers the perfect blend of natural beauty and modern infrastructure. Its capital, Ljubljana, is known for its charming, walkable old town, vibrant café culture, and reliable high-speed internet. The country also boasts excellent English proficiency, making it easy for expats to integrate and collaborate.

What sets Slovenia apart is its access to nature. Within an hour, you can swap your laptop for hiking boots and explore the stunning Julian Alps or relax by the crystal-clear waters of Lake Bled. 

The country’s manageable size makes weekend getaways effortless, whether it’s skiing in winter or exploring the Adriatic coast in summer. Plus, Slovenia is part of the Schengen Area, offering easy travel across much of Europe, making it an ideal base for nomads who crave flexibility and adventure.
