Digital Nomad Residence

Live in Slovenia while working remotely abroad

← Back to Slovenia

Since 21 November 2025, Slovenia has offered dedicated temporary residence for qualifying third-country nationals performing remote, foreign-source work.

The applicant must not enter the Slovenian labour market under this residence basis.

CETO Global assesses each case and coordinates the process with qualified Slovenian legal and immigration professionals.

Important Boundaries

No Slovenian Employment

Ordinary work for a Slovenian employer requires a different residence and work basis.

Family

Qualifying family members can potentially accompany or join under the applicable rules.

Tax

Immigration residence and tax residence are separate and require individual assessment.

Long-Term Strategy

Because this category is new, treatment for future long-term residence should be verified conservatively.
