Ancestral Records Search

Are you interested in applying for Slovak citizenship on the basis of your ancestry, or would you like to preserve your family ties and gather documents about your family’s history? We will be pleased to assist you.

In general, we can locate, in particular, a birth certificate, marriage certificate, death certificate, or a census record.

For census records, please note that the population census schedules from 1921 have survived only in part. The Slovak National Archives hold population census records only for the years 1930, 1939, 1940, 1950, 1961, 1970, 1980, and 1991, and exclusively for the territory of Slovakia.

Your personal attendance is not required in this procedure. We will send you a power of attorney for signature, which must be signed and sent back to our office. On the basis of this power of attorney, we can submit the necessary applications and communicate with the competent authorities on your behalf.
