The network covers Slovenia within the Southern Europe region. Payslips there are drawn up in EUR, and dealings with a local firm are conducted in Slovenian.
The business centres where the network is looking for a correspondent as a priority are Ljubljana, Maribor, Celje, Kranj.
The country is a member of the European Union. An employee posted from another member state remains attached to the scheme of origin under the conditions set by the European coordination regulations, and the A1 certificate issued by the institution of the sending country is the proof of this. That document is called for during on-site inspections: it is applied for before departure, never afterwards.
The answer to this question changes everything: it determines to whom you may entrust your payslips locally, and what you must ask for before signing. It has been verified country by country with the local authorities.
In Slovenia, running payroll on behalf of third parties is reserved by law to no registered profession: any company may take it on. The absence of a legal barrier shifts the checking onto you, and that is why the network itself verifies the registration, the tax and social security standing and the insurance cover of every firm before listing it.
La tenue de comptes et la paie pour compte de tiers ne sont pas reglementees en Slovenie : n'importe quelle societe ayant l'activite enregistree peut les exercer, sans licence ni inscription obligatoire. Seul l'audit legal est reserve aux pooblaščeni revizor du Slovenski inštitut za revizijo. Le seul filtre qualitatif disponible est la certification volontaire de la Zbornica računovodskih servisov (standard des prestataires comptables et titre de strokovni vodja računovodskega servisa).
Slovenia sits inside the European Union, the European Economic Area and the single currency. An EU company employs there under the European coordination regime, without prior work authorisation for Union nationals and without currency risk.
Funding of social protection is centralised: the Finančna uprava Republike Slovenije (FURS), the tax administration, collects both tax and contributions, while ZPIZ administers pension and disability insurance and ZZZS health insurance. Employee affiliation is with the latter two, payment with the first: keeping the two apart avoids a good deal of misdirected paperwork.
Salaries are paid in euros. Slovenian governs the employment contract as well as anything filed with the authorities, and a translation carries no independent weight.
Payroll is not a regulated activity. There is neither a licence nor any compulsory registration, and the only qualitative filter available is the voluntary certification issued by the Zbornica računovodskih servisov, the chamber of accounting service providers attached to the Slovenian chamber of commerce.
Nothing can be put right without the registration form filed with the insurance institutions: it feeds the single register of insured persons and is the keystone of the Slovenian social file. The employee must appear on it before the first working day.
Given to the employee before performance begins, the written contract is mandatory. The applicable collective agreement deserves close attention here: Slovenia makes extensive use of sectoral agreements, some of which are extended across an entire industry, and they set minima and entitlements that an individual contract cannot reduce.
Employing without an establishment remains open to an EU company, provided it registers as an employer and meets local reporting duties. Whether an entity is needed at all is judged against the duration of the assignment and the physical presence required.
For each payment of remuneration, the employer withholds tax and contributions and files a summary return. The payslip goes to the employee and must set out every component of the calculation, since collectively agreed allowances have to be visible as separate lines.
Deregistration with the insurance institutions, the final reckoning and compliance with the formal rules on stating grounds and giving notice, both strictly framed, bring the relationship to a close.
The network asks 8 documents of any firm wishing to represent it in Slovenia. The table gives, for each of them, the exact wording in use locally, the body that issues it and the period during which it remains admissible. These are the terms to use in an application to the local administration.
Of these 8 documents, 5 are required of every applicant and 4 have a limited period of validity, the shortest being 3 months.

Sectoral collective agreements play a role in Slovenia that is often underestimated from abroad. They govern not only minimum pay but also ancillary entitlements such as reimbursement of commuting costs and a meal allowance, which are not discretionary benefits but obligations, and any omission is made good retroactively.
There is no separate social security certificate, collection being centralised by FURS. A candidate who spontaneously produces two separate documents has probably approached the wrong bodies, which tells you a good deal about their actual practice.
Three identifiers coexist, finally, and are frequently mixed up: the matična številka assigned by AJPES, the davčna številka issued by FURS, and the VAT identification number. They are not interchangeable, each has its own use in procedures, and quoting the wrong one is the most common reason a filing is rejected without explanation.
Point d'attention : la Slovenie n'a pas d'attestation sociale distincte parce que la FURS recouvre impots et cotisations ; un candidat qui produit deux pieces separees s'est probablement adresse aux mauvais organismes. Ne pas confondre le Slovenski inštitut za revizijo (institut public, titres reglementes, audit) avec la Zbornica računovodskih servisov de la Chambre de commerce (association de cabinets, certification volontaire) : le second est le bon interlocuteur pour la paie. Les identifiants sont nombreux et souvent melanges par les candidats : matična številka (AJPES), davčna številka (FURS) et ID za DDV ne sont pas interchangeables.
The network opens 3 partner slots in Slovenia, not one more. No firm is listed there yet: all 3 slots therefore remain open to applications.
No listed partner in Slovenia has asked to appear in the public directory. The contact details of a firm are passed on to the client only when an assignment is awarded.
Filing an application does not amount to admission: every request is reviewed one by one. There is no minimum turnover requirement, and the partner selected invoices its fees directly.
Submit an application: we review your file, we check the documents required on the ground and we give you an answer, whether it is positive or not.
Because the activity is unregulated, we look first at the voluntary certification issued by the Zbornica računovodskih servisov and at the presence of a strokovni vodja računovodskega servisa, the only organised quality markers in the Slovenian market. The file comprises the AJPES extract with the matična številka, the davčna številka, the VAT number, the FURS potrdilo covering taxes and contributions, professional indemnity cover, and the record of processing activities together with the appointment of a data protection officer. References on payrolls governed by a sectoral agreement weigh heavily in our decision.
Describe your requirement. No firm is listed in Slovenia yet: we review the request, then entrust it to a local firm that the network identifies and vets, or to the partner of a neighbouring country covering this territory. Your contact details are passed on to the selected firm alone.
Request a provider in SloveniaMobility is rarely arranged one country at a time. The neighbouring profiles follow the same outline.
These countries account for most of the requests received: each one has, in addition to its profile, six pages devoted to a single aspect of local payroll.
The information gathered on this page comes from the registers, administrations and bodies listed below, consulted when the reference base was compiled. It is given for guidance and does not replace the advice of a professional established in Slovenia.
