Safety

Slovenia is a safe country. Wherever you are, even late at night in the cities, you can have no cause for concern. There is nevertheless a marginal risk of becoming a victim of certain crimes, most commonly theft. The risk of such unpleasantness can be minimised, if not prevented, by taking the right action.

We recommend that you:

    • safeguard your belongings and do not leave them in the open, in a car for example
    • only carry as much cash as you need
    • keep valuables and large sums of cash in a hotel safe
    • avoid unlit and deserted streets after dark
    • lock your car, and park in well-lit public parking areas
    • before leaving home make photocopies of all documents, travel tickets, reservations, etc.; in the event of theft or loss, this will make it easier to prove your identity and to arrange replacement documents

What to do if...?

  • If you become a victim of theft despite your precautions, call the police immediately on 113.

    If your documents are stolen or lost, you can also turn to your embassy or consulate in Slovenia.
