The temporary residence permit can be obtained on the basis of work, study, family relations or other reasons (for example on the basis of marriage with a citizen of Slovenia). For a residence permit for foreign nationals you can apply on the basis of family ties in Slovenia (for example, you have a Slovenian spouse, parent, grandparent), you can begin the process of applying for a residence permit in Slovenia at the Administrative unit. If you are applying on the basis of some other reason, such as work or study, you will need to start the process before entering Slovenia, on the Slovenian Embassy in your country of residence.
After the residence application is submitted, your documents will be sent to an Administrative Unit in Slovenia.

When or if you fulfilled all the criteria for the residence permit, Administrative unit will notify Slovenian Embassy, which will further contact you.
