Sufficient means
The residence authority requires evidence that the applicant has adequate resources. Possible evidence can include:
- Scholarship decision
- Bank funds
- Regular income
- Support from a parent who has a legal maintenance obligation
- Grants
- Other recognised income or assets
The official reference is linked to the Slovenian basic minimum income. From 1 March 2026, the published basic minimum income is €507.43, but the exact calculation for a residence case must be confirmed with the authority.
Do not automatically multiply the amount without asking how the authority assesses the intended permit period and the specific evidence.
Parent support
Prepare:
- Parent statement
- Proof of relationship
- Parent income or bank evidence
- Translation where requested
- Evidence that clearly identifies the student and support period
Proof of accommodation
Possible evidence:
- Dormitory confirmation
- Rental contract
- Landlord statement
- Ownership evidence where relevant
- Scholarship accommodation confirmation
- Other document accepted by the authority
A false or merely borrowed address can create residence, tax, delivery, and legal problems.
Registering the temporary address
A temporary address normally must be registered within eight days where the legal conditions are met. Depending on the accommodation:
- A dormitory may register the student.
- A landlord or accommodation provider may perform the reporting.
- The student may need to act personally.
Confirm who is responsible and obtain proof.
Changing address
When moving:
- End the old contract properly.
- Register the new address.
- Inform the administrative unit where required.
- Update university, bank, tax, insurance, and delivery details.
- Keep proof of the old and new dates.
