Retention of Slovak Citizenship

Have you acquired the citizenship of a foreign state? Under applicable legislation, you are obliged to notify the Ministry of the Interior of the Slovak Republic of this fact. At the same time, if you wish to retain your Slovak citizenship, you must, as part of this notification, demonstrate that you meet at least one of the statutory exceptions.

We provide our clients with comprehensive legal assistance in matters of citizenship retention. We assist with identifying eligibility to retain citizenship, with the preparation and filing of the notification, and with recommending the specific supporting documents suitable to substantiate that a statutory exception has been satisfied. We represent clients in correspondence with the Ministry of the Interior and carry out any related legal acts necessary for the effective assertion of their rights.

  1. Assessment of Eligibility and Entitlement
    Based on the information and documents you provide, we will assess whether you meet the conditions for the retention of Slovak citizenship.
  2. Detailed Case Review
    We will send you a questionnaire covering the required data and attachments, and will
    subsequently verify the relevance and evidentiary sufficiency of the documents submitted.
  3. Preparation of All Required Documents
    We will prepare the materials for filing the notification of acquisition of foreign
    citizenship—including the notification form, power of attorney, statutory declaration (or
    sworn statement), and other annexes.
  4. Review and Recommendations
    We will review the submitted documents to confirm that they meet all statutory formalities (including official/certified translations, apostille, and validity). Where necessary, we will recommend providing additional supporting documents or remedying any deficiencies.
  5. Finalization and Filing of the Notification
    We will ensure the complete preparation and submission of the notification, and no in-person appearance on your part is required.
  6. Subsequent Communication with the Authorities
    After filing the notification, we will take over all correspondence with the competent
    authority. As no formal decision is issued in this process, we will continuously monitor the
    status of the filing and keep you informed of any developments.
