Researchers and higher education teachers

A researcher, higher vocational lecturer, higher education teacher or higher education associate is issued a temporary residence permit if they have concluded a hosting agreement with a research organisation or a higher vocational or higher education institution in Slovenia (Article 38 of ZTuj-2). The means of subsistence may also be provided by that organisation. The first permit is issued for two years, or for the duration of the work under the agreement if this is shorter. Applications are processed as a matter of priority.
