Descendants of emigrants can obtain Slovak citizenship.

We can help you to ask for Slovak citizenship by descent, please do not hesitate to contact us at office@akmv.sk or by phone on +421 915 046 749.

A foreigner may be granted citizenship of the Slovak Republic if:

  • at least one of his or her parents, grandparents or great-grandparents was a Czechoslovak citizen
  • born in the territory of the Slovak Republic.

This entitlement was introduced by legislation effective as of April 2022.

Conditions for acquiring citizenship through ancestry

The basic conditions for obtaining ancestral citizenship include the proof that

  1. Your parent, grandparent or great-grandparent was a Czechoslovak citizen and at the same time
  2. That this ancestor was born in the territory of the present-day Slovakia.

However, fulfilment of the conditions for the grant of citizenship is not sufficient in itself; the relevant facts must be proved. Thus, in addition to the basic documents to be submitted with the application for citizenship, three main facts must be proved:

  1. Czechoslovak citizenship of the ancestor from whom citizenship is sought. Ancestral citizenship can be proved by any documents from which citizenship is derived, in particular passports, home certificates, census sheets, certificates, or sometimes it was customary to record citizenship on birth or marriage certificates. It is up to the applicant what documents he/she uses to prove the nationality of his/her ancestor. Please note that the birth certificate itself does not prove a person’s Czechoslovak citizenship unless it explicitly states so. The documents that can be used to prove citizenship must be Czechoslovak or Slovak (they must not be issued abroad). The originals or certified photocopies of the documents must be submitted to the Office.
    Municipalities, parish offices or archives can be contacted to obtain the above documents. The easiest way to prove ancestral citizenship is through census sheets, which are kept in archives. The first nationwide census in our territory was in 1921. Later censuses were carried out in 1930, 1939, 1940, 1950, 1961, 1970, 1980 and 1991.
  2. Birth of an ancestor in the territory of the present-day Slovak Republic. Along with the formation of the Slovak and Czechoslovak states, the state borders were also changing. For the purposes of obtaining citizenship, this fact is not relevant, because it is necessary that the ancestor was born in the territory that is part of the present-day Slovak Republic. Therefore, if an ancestor was born in a territory which was part of Slovakia at the time of his/her birth but is no longer part of Slovakia today, such a place of birth is not sufficient.
    Birth in the required territory is proved by the ancestor’s birth certificate. Birth certificates may be requested from the registry offices or, in the case of older birth certificates, from archives.
  3. Ties between the applicant and the ancestor. It is necessary to prove that the ancestor from whom citizenship is sought is indeed the applicant’s ancestor. These links are proven by birth certificates in the direct line from the applicant to the ancestor from whom Slovak citizenship is sought. If, for example, a person has changed his or her name, this change must also be documented to show that this is indeed the person concerned.

Residency requirement

The applicant for citizenship must also meet the legal residency requirement. In the case of a foreign national of Slovak origin, it is easiest to apply for permanent residence for 5 years for reasons of special consideration.

However, it is also possible to obtain a temporary residence, for example for the purpose of study, employment, special activity, etc., or such a residence can be granted to a person who has been granted the status of a Slovak living abroad. It is sufficient that the applicant is granted the residence and it is not necessary that he/she actually resides in the territory of the Slovak Republic.

The descendants of Slovak citizens are entitled to permanent residence, i.e. they can apply for permanent residence for 5 years for reasons of special consideration together with the application for Slovak citizenship. Therefore, there is no need to apply for a certificate of a Slovak living abroad, which will simplify the whole process of obtaining citizenship.

Tip

One of the duty is to enter into Slovakia in 180 days after the residence permit is granted. 

Interesting fact

Minors are not granted citizenship by descent from their ancestors if neither of their parents is a Slovak citizen.

“For applications under the provisions of Act No. 40/1993 on Slovak citizenship, as amended, it is a condition that the applicant’s great-grandparents were born in the territory of the present Slovak Republic and at any time during their lives held Czechoslovak citizenship. This must also be documented – place of birth in Slovakia and relationship by birth certificates, Czechoslovak citizenship of ancestors e.g. passports of the Czechoslovak Republic, certificate of Czechoslovak citizenship, census sheets from the Slovak National Archives.” (source: District office Bratislava)

Such a person may be granted Slovak citizenship if he or she has resided continuously in the territory of the Slovak Republic for at least three years or if he or she is a person who has been granted residence in the territory of the Slovak Republic and has made a significant contribution to the community of Slovaks living abroad, from which he or she comes, in the economic, scientific, technical, cultural, social or sporting fields.

You will only need to provide the following documents with your application for permanent residency for five years:

  • A valid travel document,
  • 2 photographs of the face 3 x 3.5 cm,
  • documents proving entitlement to citizenship from an ancestor, e.g. birth certificate of parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, marriage certificate, naturalization papers, etc.

Language requirement

For Slovaks living abroad, the requirement to demonstrate proficiency in the Slovak language in words and writing and general knowledge of the Slovak Republic is removed.

You may have already acquired citizenship by birth

If a descendant is interested in acquiring Slovak citizenship from an ancestor, we recommend first of all to check whether he/she has already acquired citizenship at birth. In the past (and also today), the legislation states that a descendant acquired Slovak/Czechoslovak citizenship automatically from his/her parent(s) if the parent was a Slovak or Czechoslovak citizen at the time of birth. Quite often it happens that the descendants do not even know that they are citizens of the Slovak Republic. It is therefore necessary to find out whether all persons in the direct line from an ancestor who emigrated may have acquired citizenship by birth.

The legislation has changed several times and there is a great amount of legislation to be taken into account in relation to the above. The easiest way to carry out such verification is to apply for a citizenship certificate from the competent authority. If the authorities find that the descendant has acquired citizenship by birth, they will issue him/her with a certificate of Slovak citizenship. In such a case, it is irrelevant for him/her to apply for citizenship, as he/she is himself/herself a Slovak citizen. Even if the applicant had first applied for citizenship, in cases where the Office suspects that the applicant may have acquired citizenship by birth alone, the Office will, on its own initiative, assess whether the applicant is not a citizen of the Slovak Republic.

Obligations after the residence permit is granted

According to Section 7(1)(i) of the Citizenship Act, the condition for granting citizenship is: „Citizenship of the Slovak Republic may be granted to an applicant who is not a citizen of the Slovak Republic and fulfils the obligations arising from the provisions of the legislation regulating the residence of foreigners on the territory of the Slovak Republic, public health insurance, social insurance, old-age pension savings, taxes, levies, fees, employment of foreigners and other obligations arising for foreigners from the legal order of the Slovak Republic.

A foreigner who has been granted permanent residence for 5 years has obligations under Section § 111 (1) and the residence may be revoked pursuant to Section § 45a ods. 4. The most important duties are:

  1. notify the police department in writing that he/she will be continuously residing outside the territory of the Slovak Republic for more than 180 days, if he/she has been granted permanent residence,
  2. prove the identity and rightfulness of the residence upon the request of a police officer by presenting a valid travel and residence document or an identification card issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to persons enjoying diplomatic privileges and immunities under international law,
  3. take out health insurance within three working days following the date the residence document and prove at the residence check that he/she is insured in the territory of the Slovak Republic,
  4. undergo biometric data at the request of the police department or the embassy for the purposes of proceedings under this Act or a special regulation,
  5. notify the police department that he/she will be staying within the territory of the Slovak Republic outside the place of granted residence for more than 30 days continuously,

According to § 111 (2) b): „The third-country national is obliged to report the beginning of his/her stay to the police department within three working days of entry, if he/she has been granted a residence permit.“

According to § 45a (4) b): „The police department shall revoke permanent residence pursuant to paragraph 1(b), (d) or (e) upon application by the State authority which applied for permanent residence; such a decision shall not be subject to appeal. A police department shall revoke permanent residence pursuant to the third-country national stays abroad continuously for more than 180 days without notifying the police department in writing.“ 

According to § 45 (4): „The third-country national shall hand over to the police department a medical report certifying that he or she does not suffer from a disease endangering public health within 30 days of receipt of the residence permit; this does not apply if the third-country national is a third-country national who has been granted residence in another Member State or if the type of residence has been changed. The medical certificate certifying that he/she is not suffering from a disease endangering public health must not be older than 30 days. The time limit for the submission of a medical report certifying that he or she is not suffering from a disease endangering public health may be extended by 60 days at the request of the third-country national by the police department.

Residence permit card

At the same time, according to the information provided by the Border and Foreign Police Office, the foreigner does not need to obtain a residence permit card. 

Insurance in Slovakia

In Slovakia we have public insurance and commercial insurance. We recommend contacting the public insurance companies (VŠZP, UNION, Dôvera) or an accountant or tax advisor about the possibility of taking out public health insurance as soon as possible. They will assess whether you are entitled to public insurance. If it is not possible to take out public insurance, you have the option of taking out commercial insurance.
