Slovenia is a signatory to the Schengen Treaty and a participant of the European Community.

However, the passport must be active for at least 90 days further than the duration of the trip. You’ll also require Euro 10,000 or the equal in cash, as well as a returning flight reservation.

26 European states make up the Schengen region. Among them, there are no frontier restrictions. Netherlands, France, Greece, Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, and the Netherland are a few of them. They have a common procedure for short-term visas.
