Slovenia has amended its Foreigners Act to introduce a temporary residence permit for digital nomads — highly qualified professionals working remotely using modern communication technologies.

Eligibility criteria:

1. Citizenship outside the EU/EEA.
   
   
2. Remote work (not employed by or providing services to clients in Slovenia).
   
   
3. A passport valid for at least 3 months beyond the intended stay.
   
   
4. Health insurance that covers emergency medical care in Slovenia.
   
   
5. Monthly income at least double the average net salary in Slovenia (currently approx. €2,868/month).
   
   
6. No grounds for rejection (e.g., security risks, criminal record, etc.).
   
   

The permit is granted for up to 1 year with no renewal. A new application may only be submitted 6 months after the previous permit expires.
