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

Slovenia's Single Permit for Residence and Work (enotno dovoljenje) is designed for third-country nationals (not EU/EEA/Swiss citizens) who take up residence in Slovenia on the basis of employment with an employer, or a work contract.

    Enotno dovoljenje za prebivanje in delo državljanov tretjih držav omogoča prebivanje v Republiki Sloveniji na podlagi zaposlitve pri delodajalcu ali pogodbe o delu. Namenjeno je državljanom držav, ki niso članice Evropske unije (EU), Evropskega gospodarskega prostora (EGP) ali Švice.

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

The applicant needs a signed employment or work contract with a specific employer, an employer declaration, and (where required) the consent of the Employment Service of Slovenia (ZRSZ). The permit combines the residence permit and the work permit into a single administrative decision through a simplified procedure.

    Enotno dovoljenje za prebivanje in delo je dovoljenje za začasno prebivanje, izdano na podlagi Zakona o tujcih, ki državljanom tretjih držav omogoča začasno prebivanje v Republiki Sloveniji in hkrati opravljanje dela ali zaposlitve pri določenem delodajalcu. Dovoljenje se pridobi na podlagi poenostavljenega postopka, pri katerem se dovoljenje za prebivanje in dovoljenje za delo združita v eno upravno odločbo.
  • infotujci.si, Enotno dovoljenje, Pogoji
    Za izdajo enotnega dovoljenja morate izpolnjevati splošne pogoje za začasno prebivanje, ki jih morajo izpolnjevati vsi tujci, ter pogoje za zaposlitev ali delo, določene v predpisih, ki urejajo zaposlovanje tujcev. Splošni pogoji po 33. členu Zakona o tujcih: veljavna potna listin, ustrezno zdravstveno zavarovanje, zadostna sredstva za preživljanje, potrdilo o nekaznovanosti iz matične države.

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

The applicant must provide proof of adequate education or professional qualification, or of other conditions required by the employer, together with an employment contract signed by the employer. The employer must also declare whether, in the six months before the application, it terminated employment contracts for business reasons with one or more workers who met the conditions for the post.

  • Renewal conditions and any longer-term residence direction beyond the two-year maximum are not stated by this source.
  • infotujci.si, Enotno dovoljenje, Trajanje veljavnosti
    To je odvisno od vaše pogodbe z delodajalcem, ampak vsekakor ne bo veljalo več kot dve leti. Dovoljenje se namreč izda za čas veljavnosti pogodbe o zaposlitvi ali pogodbe, sklenjene za opravljanje dela, vendar največ za dve leti.
