Visas for NON-EU Citizens in Slovakia

Since 2022 the Slovak Republic started issuing special visas – visas in the interest of the Slovak Republic for relocated employees or highly qualified employees – special conditions must be met to obtain these visas.
Visas for highly qualified employees (Dir 521/2021) are suitable for candidates from NON-EU countries with specific education looking to fill highly qualified positions. This visa process does not consider dependents hence family members cannot be included in this type of visa application. Extension of this visa is not possible and later the applicant must obtain a residence permit. Note that the total number of this visa is limited to 3000 in 2023.
Visas for relocated employees (Dir 269/2022) are suitable for highly qualified employees and extend to their family members. Before the applicant can file a visa application approval of the list of relocated employees submitted by the Slovak employing company must be obtained from SARIO ( Slovak Investment and Trade Agency), and these visas can be extended.
