    Slovenia Official Visa from Bangladesh

    Schengen short-stay visa for official delegations, government duties, and formally authorized travel to Slovenia.

    Last Updated: 30 August 2026

    The Slovenia Official Visa is a Schengen short-stay route for Bangladeshi applicants travelling to Slovenia as part of an official delegation, government-authorized duty, diplomatic engagement, institutional programme, or another formally supported mission. It generally permits a stay of up to 90 days within any 180-day period.

    This category should be used where the journey is supported by official records such as a Note Verbale, Government Order, delegation authorization, invitation from a Slovenian authority or institution, or confirmed programme schedule. Sweden represents Slovenia for short-stay Schengen visa matters in Bangladesh, and applications are lodged through the Sweden Visa Application Centre in Dhaka.

    Process Roadmap

    Step 1

    Confirm Official Purpose

    Confirm that the trip is connected to a government delegation, diplomatic duty, institutional meeting, intergovernmental event, or another officially authorized activity in Slovenia. A Schengen short-stay visa (Type C) is generally used for an eligible visit of up to 90 days.

    Step 2

    Complete the Application Form

    Complete the form with details that match the passport, official designation, Note Verbale, Government Order, Slovenian invitation, travel period, accommodation, and funding arrangement.

    Step 3

    Arrange Official Authorization Documents

    Compile the Note Verbale, Government Order, delegation letter, Slovenian host invitation, meeting confirmation, programme schedule, and other records establishing the purpose and duration of the official mission.

    Step 4

    Prepare Travel and Support Evidence

    Arrange the passport, photographs, cover letter, itinerary, official accommodation, funding or cost-responsibility proof, civil documents, and travel insurance where required. Provide translations where applicable.

    Step 5

    Coordinate Submission at Visa Application Centre

    Slovenia short-stay applications from Bangladesh are handled through the Sweden Visa Application Centre in Dhaka. Diplomatic and official passport holders with a proper Note Verbale are exempt from appointment scheduling under the current procedure.

    Step 6

    Submit Application & Provide Biometrics

    Attend the applicable submission process with the passport and organized file. Provide biometric information where required and complete any applicable VFS, optional-service, or payment formalities.

    Step 7

    Track Application & Verify Visa

    Use the VFS tracking facility where available. After passport return, verify the applicant's name, passport number, visa validity, entries, and permitted duration of stay before travel.
