Slovenia's main route for employing non-EU nationals. A single document combines residence and work authorisation: it is issued by the local administrative unit, while the Employment Service of Slovenia (ZRSZ) grants the required consent. The first permit is issued for the duration of the employment contract but for no more than two years, with extensions of up to three years.

This route lets non-EU nationals be self-employed in Slovenia without Employment Service consent, but self-employment is generally only allowed after one year of continuous legal residence — unless you are already in the Slovenian business register.
The single permit is Slovenia's main route for employing non-EU nationals: one document combines residence and work authorisation, issued by the administrative unit with consent from the Employment Service, normally for up to two years at first.
Slovenia's EU Blue Card is a single permit for highly qualified employment, for non-EU nationals with a higher-education qualification and a job meeting the higher salary threshold; it is usually exempt from the labour-market test and offers EU mobility.
The seasonal work permit lets non-EU nationals take up seasonal jobs, notably in agriculture; for seasonal work over 90 days the Employment Service grants consent within the single-permit framework, while shorter work uses a simpler permit.
