About the Slovenia passport
Ranked #5 out of 200 in the global passport index, the Slovenia passport offers more travel freedom than 98% of passports worldwide. Alongside Bulgaria and Estonia, it sits among the world's strongest travel documents. Slovenia citizenship is inheritable across generations, meaning children born to Slovenia citizens abroad may be eligible to claim citizenship by descent.
