01
A company is not a residence permit
Registering a business does not itself give its owner the right to live or work in Slovenia.

Start with the legal basis
Wanting to live in Slovenia does not yet determine the right permit
Citizenship, work, income, family and place of filing affect the available routes. The wrong basis can mean unnecessary documents or an unworkable plan.
02
Banking and housing need separate checks
Opening an account and securing housing depend on documents, citizenship, compliance review and the provider.
03
Rules differ by citizenship
Entry, filing, documents and practical restrictions can differ for Russian, Israeli and other nationals.

Moving to and residing in Slovenia: where to begin
General answers based on official Slovenian sources. Every concrete case is assessed separately.
Legal information reviewed on 19 September 2026.
What are the main residence routes?
Possible routes include employment, the EU Blue Card, study, family, remote work under the digital-nomad regime and other purposes provided by law. The right option depends on the facts of the case.
Official sourceDoes buying property create a residence right?
No. Buying or renting property does not itself create a right of residence; a separate lawful basis is required.
Official sourceCan I open a company and immediately obtain residence?
Company registration and the owner's right to live or work in Slovenia are separate questions and should be planned together.
Official sourceWho qualifies for the digital-nomad permit?
It is intended for eligible non-EU and non-EEA nationals who work remotely for a foreign employer, client or as self-employed abroad without entering the Slovenian labour market.
Official sourceCan I file while already in Slovenia?
That depends on the route and legality of the current stay. For digital nomads, filing abroad or at an administrative unit during lawful stay in Slovenia is expressly provided.
Official sourceDo you help with housing and bank accounts?
Yes, we can coordinate these steps. The outcome depends on documents, the provider's review and current compliance rules, so it cannot be guaranteed in advance.
Official sourceThis material is general information. Residence rights, place of filing, documents and practical restrictions depend on citizenship, legal basis and the rules in force at the relevant time.
