Slovenian passports (Slovene: slovenski potni list) are issued to citizens of Slovenia to facilitate international travel. Every Slovenian citizen is also a citizen of the European Union. The passport, along with the national identity card allows for free rights of movement and residence in any of the states of the European Union, European Economic Area and Switzerland, as a result of the right of free movement and residence granted in Article 21 of the EU Treaty.[2]
The Slovenian ID card is also valid for travel to most other former Yugoslav republics: Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia, Montenegro and Serbia.
