Let’s study each stage in#nbsp;more detail.

What business is worth starting in Slovenia?

Company registration in#nbsp;Slovenia

The company registration has three stages:

Preparatory stage:

Select the name and activities for the LLC#nbsp;— in#nbsp;Slovenia it#nbsp;is d.o.o.
Have a#nbsp;valid passport for more than 5 years.
Order the criminal record absence certificate in#nbsp;the residence country.
Order the taxpayer certificate in#nbsp;the residence country.

The certificates should be#nbsp;issued not later than 30 days before application.

Main stage:

Get a#nbsp;TIN in#nbsp;Slovenia.
Open a#nbsp;bank account in#nbsp;Slovenia.
Deposit the authorized capital of €#nbsp;7,500 to#nbsp;the account.
Prepare the legal address for the company.

To#nbsp;save your time and money, we#nbsp;help you formalize the company’s legal status by#nbsp;power of#nbsp;attorney without your presence.

After submitting the documents:

Obtain a#nbsp;court decision on#nbsp;company registration.
Open a#nbsp;current bank account for the company.

Opening a#nbsp;bank account requires personal presence in#nbsp;the country.

Company maintenance expenses

There are three ways of#nbsp;registering a#nbsp;company: applying online, visiting the SPOT Center, registering at#nbsp;the notary’s office.

Employment and getting a#nbsp;residence permit in#nbsp;Slovenia

When the company registration is#nbsp;confirmed, a#nbsp;work permit can be#nbsp;applied for. To#nbsp;do#nbsp;this, you must fulfill one of#nbsp;the following conditions:

Invest €#nbsp;50,000 in#nbsp;the company#nbsp;— this money can be#nbsp;used to#nbsp;buy equipment, a#nbsp;vehicle or#nbsp;real estate for running the business.
Employ a#nbsp;worker with a#nbsp;work permit in#nbsp;Slovenia for at#nbsp;least 6 months.
Show a#nbsp;company turnover of €#nbsp;60,000 in#nbsp;the last 6 months.
Have a#nbsp;higher education diploma.

When the work permit in#nbsp;Slovenia is#nbsp;ready, a#nbsp;residence permit can be#nbsp;applied for. The list of#nbsp;necessary documents includes:

Criminal record absence certificate from the residence country not older than 30 days.
EU#nbsp;Medical insurance for 3 months.
Photo.
Filled application form.
Employment contract.
Consular fee payment.

If#nbsp;the company has a#nbsp;small income, after a#nbsp;year of#nbsp;living in#nbsp;Slovenia, a#nbsp;sole proprietorship can be#nbsp;registered#nbsp;— here it#nbsp;is#nbsp;called s.p. It#nbsp;can optimize your taxes and make your business easier.
