Therefore, many new restaurants have been opening, especially in bigger towns. Also because of the increasing multicultural aspect of Slovenia’s popularity, many foreigners have decided to start their business in Slovenia by introducing their local cuisine.

Opening a restaurant requires you to register a company in Slovenia first
In order to start your business in Europe, you can register your company in Slovenia and make the country your home base for the European market. Slovenians are no longer bound to their traditional cuisine, but have accepted international cuisine strongly. Hence, many foreigners have brought a piece of home with them when relocating to Slovenia by opening a restaurant providing their unique national cuisine.
Non-EU citizens can open an LTD company with 7.500€ founding capital. Additionally, they would require a Slovenian tax number, business address for the company and your valid passport. The whole process of company registration takes around 1 month to complete.
Conditions of the restaurant business activity
While having a restaurant does not require you to obtain specific licenses or occupational licensing, you will still need to abide by certain regulations as you will be handling food products. The business premises will have to be in accordance with the minimal technical standards. You will also need to receive a confirmation of your restaurant’s working hours from the municipality. When handling food products you need to abide by the HACCP standards for hygiene. The external surfaces also have to meet minimum technical requirements.
