Entry/Exit Requirements
"A passport is required. A visa is not required for stays for
tourism or business up to 90 days within six months of the date
of first entry into the Slovak Republic.All foreigners seeking entry
into the Slovak Republic must carry proof of a medical insurance
policy contracted for payment of all costs for hospitalization and
medical treatment in the Slovak Republic. Border police have the
right to request evidence of finances sufficient to pay for the
proposed stay in the Slovak Republic in the amount of $50 per person
per day. Current information can be found on the Slovak Embassy’s
web site at http://www.slovakembassy-us.org.
All persons in Slovakia over the age of 15 must carry official
identification at all times. American citizens staying overnight
in Slovakia must register with the local Border and Aliens Police
within three working days. Persons staying hotels are registered
automatically.
A valid passport is required. U.S. citizen tourist and business
travelers do not need visas for visits of up to 90 days. That period
begins when entering any of the following countries which are parties
to the Schengen agreement: Austria, Belgium, The Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland,
Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, Norway,
Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and Sweden.
Note: Although European Union regulations require that non-EU visitors
obtain a stamp in their passports upon initial entry to a Schengen
country, many borders are not staffed with officers carrying out
this function. If an American citizen wishes to ensure that his
or her entry is properly documented, it may be necessary to request
a stamp at an official point of entry. Under local law, travelers
without a stamp in their passports may be questioned and asked to
document the length of their stay in Schengen countries at the time
of departure or at any other point during their visit, and could
face possible fines or other repercussions if unable to do so."
