What type of worker, employment situation, occupation or professional activity is this pathway actually designed for?

Third-country nationals with an employment contract in Slovenia for seasonal work longer than 90 days, at times of increased demand for workers in a sector; permitted sectors are agriculture, forestry, hospitality and tourism.

See recorded sources

Does the applicant need a job offer, employer, sponsor, transfer relationship or other employer involvement? What is important about that employer relationship?

Yes: a valid employment contract (or contract for work) signed by the employer/contracting party is required, plus the employer's signed statement on whether accommodation is provided; an employment contract is required except where the law on temporary and occasional agricultural work provides otherwise. The employer may apply for issuance or renewal on the worker's behalf.

What are the few decisive professional characteristics of the pathway: occupation, qualifications, experience, salary, skill level, shortage status, labour-market condition or equivalent?

Answer not available

What work does the permission allow? Is the holder tied to an employer, occupation or sector? Can family accompany where clearly established?

The permit covers seasonal work for the duration of the employment contract or contract for work with the same employer or contracting party. The official source does not state whether the holder can change employer or whether family members may accompany the holder.

Limits of the record
  • Whether the holder can change employer is not explicitly stated.
  • The family position is not stated.

How long is the permission normally granted for, how is it renewed, and what longer-term residence direction exists if officially stated?

The permit is issued for the duration of the contract with the same employer and can be extended, but total seasonal work may not exceed six months (or, in exceptional cases set by law, seven months) in a calendar year. Temporary residence for seasonal work does not count towards the five years of continuous residence required for permanent residence.
