<p>This page was last checked on 30 July 2026 and applies to student-work rates and tax rules in 2026. Deadlines, fees, required documents, eligibility conditions, and administrative procedures may change.

<h2>Who can work</h2>
|
||||
<h2>Student work and regular employment are different</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>A foreign student with valid student status may use student-work services when the applicable conditions are met.</p>
|
||||
<p>A Macedonian student with valid student status can work through a student service using a napotnica. Prepare a Slovenian tax number, EMŠO, a personal bank account in your own name, an identity document, and student status visible to the service.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Before the first job</h2>
|
||||
<p>A standard employment contract is a different legal route. It generally requires changing to an appropriate work and residence basis, such as an enotno dovoljenje. Do not start regular employment only because student work was allowed.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Prepare:</p>
|
||||
<h2>Napotnica</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The napotnica is the legal basis for student work and must be issued before the work begins. It can be electronic and replaces a separate employment contract for this temporary and occasional work. Keep a copy and confirm the employer, type of work, hourly rate, start date, and validity. Work without a valid napotnica is undeclared work.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Minimum rate and deductions</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>From 5 February 2026, the minimum gross hourly rate is €8.98, and the reference resident net rate after the standard pension contribution is €7.73. A tax non-resident may initially have a 13.95% pension and disability contribution and a 22.5% income-tax advance. The exact net amount depends on tax residence, treaty relief, payment size, and approved claims.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Treaty relief for Macedonian tax residents</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Slovenia has a double-taxation treaty with North Macedonia. A qualifying student may use KIDO 4 before payment to request treaty relief and KIDO 12 after withholding to request a refund. FURS requires supporting evidence, and the current rules, thresholds, and personal allowance must be checked for the payment year.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Working conditions and red flags</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Agree in writing on the gross hourly rate, schedule, paid break, payment date, reimbursements, safety training, and who records hours. The employer must keep records of actual working time. General working-time protections, rest rules, health and safety, and special protections for workers under 18 apply. Do not accept unpaid trial work, passport retention, false hour records, cash-only payment, or hazardous work without training.</p>

<h2>Referral note</h2>
|
||||
<h2>Sources and further information</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Do not begin work before the student service issues the referral note (napotnica). The note creates the formal basis for student work.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Current minimum</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>From 5 February 2026, the published minimum gross hourly rate for student work is €8.98.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Gross is not the same as the amount received in the bank account. Contributions and tax treatment apply.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h2>Foreign-student tax</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>A foreign student needs a Slovenian tax number.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Tax relief may depend on:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ul class="guide-checklist">
|
||||
<li>Slovenian tax-residency status</li>
|
||||
<li>Personal allowance conditions</li>
|
||||
<li>Treaty between Slovenia and North Macedonia</li>
|

<li>Correct KIDO form</li>
|

<p>FURS publishes forms including KIDO 4 for treaty relief before payment and KIDO 12 for refund claims after withholding.</p>

<p>Do not rely on a calculator from a student-work website as final tax advice.</p>
