Immigration to Slovenia by investment

Immigration to Slovenia by investment also known as business immigration Slovenia is one of the more common legal basis for a foreigner’s residence in Slovenia. The foreigner usually applies for the first residence and work permit before coming to Slovenia, at the Slovenian consulate / embassy abroad. Immigration to Slovenia by investment is granted for a maximum of one year but can be renewed annually and this may already be done in Slovenia.

Immigration to Slovenia by investment is possible only for directors. For a foreigner it is usually necessary that s/he opens a new company in Slovenia in which he will also be a director. After that s/he needs to show a proper investment in the fixed assets of the company where s/he will be the director. The investment should be in the minimum amount of 50.000,00 EUR. The foreigner is expected to run a company, pay company taxes, pay himself a minimum salary and be insured as the director of the company, have an accountant, etc. The company itself should run positively otherwise the foreigner might have troubles when renewing the Slovenia residence permit by investment after a year.

Immigration to Slovenia by ownership of property

For foreigners who are nationals of certain countries, it is possible to apply for a residence permit based on ownership of property / ownership of real estate. This process is much easier than applying as a director of a company in which 50.000,00 EUR was invested beforehand. The reason is obvious. You will not only have direct ownership of property, but there may even be coowners. Immigration to Slovenia by ownership of property is also cheaper and less problematic since you don’t have to pay the costs of running a company. As in other types of residence permits you will first get a Slovenia temporary residence permit and after 5 years a Slovenia permanent residence permit. Ask our immigration lawyer if you qualify for this option.
