Kuala lumpur: Slovenia introduced its new Digital Nomad Visa on Nov 21, allowing remote workers to live and work in the country for up to one year.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, the Slovenian Tourist Board in a statement said it has also launched a dedicated information page for prospective applicants.

Often called Europe’s green heart, Slovenia offers an exceptional natural environment with two-thirds of its land covered by forests and one-third protected. Alpine peaks, crystal-clear lakes, Mediterranean coastlines, and rolling green landscapes lie within short distances, providing an ideal setting for remote work.

Cities such as Ljubljana, Maribor, Koper, and Celje blend historic charm with contemporary creativity. Ljubljana, a European Green Capital, stands out for its walkable centre, tranquil riverbanks, cultural scene, and abundant green spaces.

Slovenia’s diverse culinary landscape-shaped by Alpine, Mediterranean, and Pannonian influences-ranges from local markets to Michelin-starred dining.

Beyond its natural beauty, Slovenia is a highly connected and innovation-driven nation. High-speed internet covers nearly the entire country, while coworking spaces, tech parks, and start-up hubs foster collaboration. The country also ranks among the world’s safest, placing ninth in the 2025 Global Peace Index.

Slovenia’s compact size is one of its greatest advantages. Remote workers can travel from Ljubljana to Alpine trails or the Adriatic coast in about an hour, with other scenic regions reachable within two hours-making it easy to balance work with leisure and exploration.

Home to globally recognised innovators such as Outfit7, Celtra, Dewesoft, GenePlanet, Mediately, and Juicy Marbles, Slovenia embodies a forward-looking spirit grounded in tradition, nature, and community.

With the launch of the Digital Nomad Visa, Slovenia invites remote workers to experience a destination where nature, culture, and innovation converge.
