Slovenia · 4 rules · 3 calculators
How many days can you spend in Slovenia?
Slovenia joined the EU in 2004 and the Schengen area in 2007. Visiting from outside the EU, you can spend 90 days in any 180 in the area, Slovenia included. For tax, more than 183 days in a calendar year make you resident — and so does a registered permanent residence. With EU long-term resident status, the EU directive ends it after 12 months in a row outside the EU, or 6 years outside the country that granted it; countries may allow longer.

Day calculators for Slovenia
Slovenia: questions and answers.
Is Slovenia in Schengen?
Yes: Slovenia has been in the Schengen area since 2007, when checks at its borders with the other Schengen countries were abolished. It joined the EU in 2004.
How long can I stay in Slovenia as a US citizen?
As a visitor, the same as anyone from outside the EU: 90 days in any 180 across the 29 Schengen countries together, Slovenia included. Since EES, your entries and exits are recorded at the border instead of stamped in your passport.
How many days a year can I spend in Slovenia without tax residency?
No more than 183 in total in the calendar year — with no registered permanent residence, habitual residence or centre of interests in Slovenia.
Can I spend 90 days in Slovenia and then 90 in Croatia?
Not as a visitor from outside the EU: the 90 days in any 180 count every Schengen country together, so days in Slovenia and in the rest of the area add up.
How long can an EU long-term resident in Slovenia be outside the EU?
Under the EU directive, 12 months in a row, or 6 years outside the country that granted the status. Countries may allow longer absences, and must have an easier way to get the status back.
