When preparing your application, gathering the documentation neatly and orderly is the definitive step to ensure the success of your request. Below, we detail all the formal requirements demanded by the authorities.

Official checklist by nationality

This list strictly applies to all eligible nationalities under the bilateral agreements: Argentina, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. To assemble your file for the Slovenian government, you must submit:

• National Visa D application form: Printed, completed, and duly signed.

• Original passport: With a minimum validity of 12 months at the time of applying.

• Photographs: Two current passport-size photos (3.5x4.5 cm, white background, biometric).

• Consular Fee: Proof of payment of the 77 EUR (payable in local currency as indicated by the embassy).

• Criminal Records: Official physical certificate, duly legalized with The Hague Apostille and translated into Slovenian.

• Demonstration of own funds: Bank statements (minimum of 2,500 EUR) with their respective translation into Slovenian.

• Return ticket: Proof of the return flight or demonstration of extra funds to purchase it.

• Medical insurance: International policy valid for the Schengen area with a minimum coverage of 30,000 EUR for the full year.

• Proof of accommodation: Confirmed reservation or official hospitality letter for your first days.

The importance of an impeccable file

It is vital to meticulously verify that each certificate complies with the required formalities, paying special attention to the validity of the documents and the validity of the sworn translations, to avoid rejections at the consular window.

Presenting an impeccable folder will allow you to obtain approval smoothly, leaving your path clear to organize your trip, search for job options, or thoroughly analyze the rich local academic offer with total peace of mind before landing in Europe.
