Fun fact
Did you know that Slovenia offers a special residence permit for digital nomads? It is intended for non-EU/EEA foreigners who work remotely for employers or clients based outside Slovenia, meaning they are not part of the Slovenian labour market. The permit can be issued for up to one year and cannot be renewed, but a new application may be submitted after a six‑month break following its expiry.

Danish employer
A Danish employer was to employ a third-country resident, who was residing in Slovenia based on the existing employment with a Slovenian company. We offered advice, drafts of documents and representation in front of the Slovenian authorities in the process of ending / returning the employee’s single permit and deregistering its residence in Slovenia. The matter was time sensitive, since we needed to handle the process in a manner that the third country visa holder was ensured with continuity of EU visa due to change of employer (coordination with Slovenian and Danish authorities) without having to leave Europe.
