Slovenia introduced amendments to its Foreigners Act (ZTuj-2l) on 21 May 2025 and will soon implement amendments to its Employment, Self-Employment and Work of Foreigners Act (ZZSDT-E). These changes are expected to incorporate EU Directive 2021/1883, which regulates the conditions of entry and residence of third-country nationals for the purpose of highly qualified employment, into Slovenian legislation, along with other provisions. Effective 21 May 2025, the maximum validity of initial single permits for residence and work increased from one year to two years. Additionally, permit holders are now able to renew their permits for up to three years (up from two years previously).
