Employment of Foreign Nationals in Slovakia
- Last Updated: 09 January 2025
The brochure "Employment of Foreign Nationals in Slovakia 2024" provides comprehensive information about the conditions and opportunities for employment of foreign nationals in Slovakia. Its purpose is to help you navigate legislation, obligations, and rights that apply to you when seeking a job and during employment.
It contains practical advice and guidance that explain the process of obtaining work permits, temporary residence for employment purposes, and other essential documents. It also highlights differences in conditions depending on your type of residence and the kind of work you intend to perform.
The brochure is primarily intended for third-country nationals, i.e., individuals from outside the EU, EEA, and Switzerland, who wish to work in Slovakia. It also includes brief information about the status of Union citizens in employment relations in Slovakia.
This brochure serves as a helpful guide for any foreign national planning to work in Slovakia. For the most up-to-date information, we recommend verifying details with the relevant authorities or the IOM Migration Information Centre.
The brochure is available in Slovak, English, Russian, and Ukrainian.
