Updates for Slovenia


Slovenia Slovenia adopts its own national classification of risk areas

Slovenia adopts its own national classification of risk areas, hence travel restrictions for Slovenia are not based on the common “EU Traffic Lights” map.

Travelers from countries that are NOT explicitly named on the “red” list can enter Slovenia without quarantine or negative test result requirement. A person is considered to be coming from a country if he/she has stayed in that country continuously for 14 days before entering Slovenia (which can be proven by a proper certificate).

Slovenia Slovenia dropped border restrictions for European countries

Slovenia dropped border restrictions on May 15, but remains cautious. The country in June tightened some of its measures following an increase in infections, which the government said was due to excessive leeway on quarantine requirements.

Arrivals from countries on Slovenia’s safe list, covering most (but not all) the EU and Schengen area, can travel without restrictions. Travelers from countries that aren’t on that list face a two-week quarantine unless they fall into one of 15 exceptions. There’s also a list of countries with a deteriorating situation, which only have six exceptions to the mandatory quarantine. Slovenia monitors the epidemiological situation to update the lists.

Some travelers from countries on the “red” list, who meet an exception, also have to present a negative test that’s no older than three days and was taken in an EU/Schengen country.

We recommend to always check if there are any latest travel restrictions before you book an accommodation. Travel may only be permitted for certain purposes and recreational travel may not be specifically permitted. Government measures are constantly changing, so we recommend that you regularly check for updates. Click here for travel restrictions and guidelines for Slovenia.
