The ZagraNitsa portal will tell you why Slovenia is a profitable rate for business immigration, as well as the procedure for opening a business for foreigners

The law, as elsewhere, dictates that emigration to Slovenia needs justification. This is usually business, work, family reunification, or training. Slovenia attracts foreigners because it is a developed European republic with a stable economy. In addition, there is a low level of unemployment and crime, high-quality modern infrastructure. It is no wonder that every year millions of foreign citizens come to the country, and first of all - from the CIS.

When planning to start a business in Slovenia and business immigration with family members, consider the key point: the cost of living.

Data:

Immigration to Slovenia, a Central European country, is a responsible decision. You must be prepared that your household costs will be higher, since the standard of living, and, accordingly, prices differ from the countries of the former Soviet Union. According to Eurostat, the price level in Slovenia is average compared to the rest of Europe: for example, prices for consumer goods and services reach 82% of the European average. For comparison, in the most expensive country in Europe - Switzerland - this figure is 149%, and in the cheapest - Macedonia - 47%

Having decided to open your own business in Slovenia, you will be pleasantly surprised by the lack of bureaucratic red tape. It will take 2 working days to complete the preliminary documentation. According to the law, there is no clearly prescribed deadline for when a company will appear in the court register of Ajpes.si, however, in most cases, 3-5 days after registration with the One Stop Shop.

In general, the process of starting a business in Slovenia can be divided into 5 stages:

• Registration of primary documentation.
• Registration of the company name.
• Company registration in the One Stop Shop.
• Opening a bank account with authorized capital.
• Accounting start-up.

But before filling out the primary documentation, decide what kind of business you want to open in Slovenia. It only depends on you and your capabilities. Please note: to open a company, you must be in the country during the final stage.

At the first stage, starting a business involves preparing a package of Slovenian documents on the basis of which you register a company. Foreign founders and directors must obtain a Slovenian TIN (identification code). And immediately note: each founder must submit a certificate of no criminal record in Slovenia.

If the founder is individual, to obtain a Slovenian TIN you will need:

• a copy of the passport (page with the first and last name), information about the address, date and place of birth;
• the name of the company to be registered.

Daria Golob-Koritnik, Head of Legal Department, Data:

The founder can be a legal entity. In this case, registration of a representative office of a foreign company or a new Slovenian company is required, the founder of which may be a legal entity. The parent company must obtain a Slovenian tax number. Registration of a representative office of a foreign company involves the following documents:

1) the original of the court extract (received no later than 3 months ago) or an extract from another official register on the registration of the parent company - with a translation into Slovenian by an official court translator;

2) a copy of the passport and the address of permanent residence of the person recorded by the owner of the parent company;

3) legal address, as well as a notarized permission to use the address from the owner of the property;

4) the name of the company to be registered in Slovenia;

5) some other papers

Now decide on the name of your business. Attention: if the name of the company coincides with the name of any other company in the register or strongly resembles it, the registering authority has the right to reject the application.

Daria Golob-Koritnik, Head of Legal Department, Data:

To book a company name, you must meet the following requirements:

1) the name should not contain the names and symbols of foreign states or international organizations;

2) the use of foreign letters is allowed;

3) the name of the country "Slovenia" and its derivatives (SLO, si), as well as abbreviations, names of the flag and coat of arms of the Republic of Slovenia are allowed only on the basis of the written permission of the government. This rule applies to the use of all words specific to a country or local authorities self-government (national, republican, municipal, etc.);

4) the given name, surname or pseudonym of a historical or famous person can only be used with his written consent. And if a person has already died, then with the permission of his close relatives up to the third generation or with the permission of the minister, whose competence includes the issuance of such documents

It goes without saying that the name of the company cannot contain words and symbols that are contrary to law and morality, well-known trademarks or simply signs used by other owners, as well as elements of official marks.

This is followed by the registration itself. If earlier representatives by proxy could do everything for you, then at this stage the personal presence of all founders and directors is required. According to experts, the registration of an LLC (a company with limited liability, d.o.o. in Slovenian) will be finally completed within one week: when you receive the decision from the court register.

After the data appears in the court register, the opening of the company took place. The founder / director can now hire staff, sign contracts, pay bills, etc.

You will also need to open a temporary bank account and put on it a deposit of 7,500 euros - the authorized capital of your company. At the bank you will receive a certificate of deposit in your hands. It should be noted that the presence of the authorized capital required condition for registration. The capital is deposited on the day of registration, but this does not mean that the registration is complete: without the authorized capital, documents will not be considered in court.

Opening a business in Slovenia is not so difficult, the main thing is to strictly adhere to the simple requirements of local legislation. Moreover, most of the stages can be completed remotely if you get qualified help. Remember that successfully registering your business in Slovenia is just the beginning. After it, you move on to the most important stage - obtaining a single work and residence permit in Slovenia, which is necessary for full-fledged immigration. After all, it is this document that opens the way to the cherished Slovenian residence permit!

You can get advice on business immigration to Slovenia from specialists

Slovenia is a state in Eastern Europe, which is often compared with classical Western European countries. All their values ​​- moderation, respect for others, obedience to the law - are also characteristic of Slovenia. This small and cozy country with a population of only 2 million people often becomes a gateway to other states for immigrants. Western Europe... This is used by many foreigners who have come to Slovenia. Nevertheless, life in this civilized and beautiful European region attracts Russian migrants with an average income. Therefore, it is worth considering the pros and cons of moving to a country and the living conditions it provides.

Slovenia and migrants

It is no secret that many people use Slovenia as a kind of "springboard" for resettlement to other states of Western Europe. After all, the country is not only a member of the European Union, but also signed the Schengen Agreement. This "border" status has led many migrants to consider Slovenia only for transit stays. This entailed a tightening of the country's migration legislation. Moving here to live is very difficult. And this, in turn, was reflected in the migration increase, which in 2015 amounted to only 798 people. Statistics show that fewer and fewer foreigners have been moving to Slovenia for several years in a row.

In total, about 100,000 foreigners live in Slovenia, that is, every twentieth inhabitant is a foreigner.... Basically, it is a mono-national state. Most of the emigrants who settled here came from neighboring countries- Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Macedonia, Croatia and Kosovo. Therefore, outwardly, they do not really stand out from the locals.

Tightening immigration policy

In the twenty years that have passed since the independence of the state, the laws regulating the entry of foreigners into the country have become more and more severe. For illegal residence and work in Slovenia, the offender faces serious fines, imprisonment and deportation. Employers using illegal work will also have big trouble. And since September 1, 2015, new immigration laws have made life even more difficult for those wishing to settle in the country. Two main laws, according to which newcomers lived in the state, have changed - the "Law on Immigration" and "The Law on the Employment of Foreign Citizens." Since October 2015, after Hungary closed the borders for refugees from Syria, more than 400 thousand people have arrived in Slovenia. Therefore, the country has adopted restrictions on the entry of migrants. But they only concern the massive influx of asylum seekers who arrive in Slovenia without an entry permit.

Life in Slovenia from the point of view of an ordinary person

Slovenia has a very calm environment. There are no political conflicts typical of other countries that were part of the former Yugoslavia. Slovenia has a very decent standard of living, especially when compared with other Eastern European countries, even the prosperous Czech Republic. Although the country is small, its economy is developing rapidly. The tourism industry is especially promising. Mechanical engineering and manufacturing are at a high level. But in the country there is a recession, wages are small and the high cost of living eats up almost all of them. The average Slovene has a net income after taxes of $ 19,326 per year ($ 1,610 per month). It is less average salary for the European Union. There is a very large difference between the incomes of the rich and the poor.

Standard of living

63% of able-bodied citizens of Slovenia are employed... This is also lower than in Europe as a whole, where, on average, 65% are employed. able-bodied population... Education in the state is free for citizens and foreigners with a residence permit. The level of education itself is very good and gives excellent professional skills. 85% of Slovenes graduated high school, which exceeds the European figure. In terms of knowledge, girls surpass boys. And the life expectancy of citizens of the country coincides with the average European - 80 years. Although Slovenes are not very satisfied with their lot, they rated their lives 5.7 on a ten-point scale, while the European average is 6.5.

Despite the crisis, people travel, build houses, buy housing, bank loans with acceptable conditions. The outskirts of Ljubljana are very beautiful, decent villages with a developed infrastructure, a lot of private houses are being built, there are, of course, those that have frozen construction. The crisis has affected unemployment - it has increased now, and therefore there are many people who are ready to work not for big money.

Climate

The climate in Slovenia is for health. The country has an ideal geographical position: it has access to the Adriatic Sea, but at the same time there is no too strong heat in the summer. Fishing villages and medieval towns beckon tourists. A large percentage of the country's territory is occupied by national parks, mountains and ski resorts. From here, from the very center of Europe, it is inexpensive and easy to travel to neighboring Austria, Croatia, Italy.

Ecology and nature

Slovenia is considered one of the most environmentally friendly countries in Europe. Its natural resources are very diverse. Although the state is small in size, it has mountainous, plain and forest landscapes. In the north of the country there are ridges of the Alps with lakes and snow-capped peaks. In the south, there are forests with valuable species of conifers. Among the agricultural landscapes, vineyards are pleasing to the eye, and in addition to lakes, streams and waterfalls, there are also many thermal springs. For its beautiful views, the country was even called "Slavic Switzerland".

What kind of people are these Slovenes?

Slovenes at first glance may seem withdrawn and uncommunicative, although in practice this is not the case. They don't laugh out loud or shout in the streets. They do not like conversations related to material wealth or family problems... However, it is customary for them to communicate on the topic of a career or profession. Slovenes are people who value family comfort. They are very fond of arranging "family" dinners on weekends - at home or in a restaurant. But in this country, when joint trips to a cafe, everyone pays their own bill, regardless of the floor.

Video: Discover Slovenia

At the same time, the locals are friendly and ready to help in solving any problem. A favorite pastime of Slovenes is to drink coffee on the terraces. They also arrange working meetings there. Nightlife in Slovenia is not very popular, and therefore most establishments close at ten in the evening. An exception is Ljubljana with its party bars and districts where you can walk until midnight or even until morning. But it's safe here. Children of five or seven years old travel by bus to school on their own, and they will not steal the abandoned things and even money. Slovenes are very fond of flowers. They are used to decorate streets, squares, courtyards of private houses.

Russians in Slovenia

According to various statistics, from 700 to 1,120 people from the Russian Federation currently live in Slovenia. There is no diaspora here, and migrants from Russia are very scattered throughout the country. Per last years there are a little more visitors from the Russian Federation, but still their number is small.

Russians came to Slovenia for various reasons: they got married, found work, opened a business. But the main thing that unites the Russians who have remained in Slovenia is the search for a quiet and calm oasis, where the language sounds similar to their native, and the local mentality is not so different. People come here to hide from the big cities with their bustle, stress and crime. And some decided to live in Slovenia because of its good medicine, ecology and quality products. And one more thing: this country is considered very promising for the birth and upbringing of children.

Where do migrants from Russia live?

Researchers claim that there are four types of Russian migrants in Slovenia:

• "Who have taken root here";
• those who travel to Russia and back;
• business immigrants;
• people who see Slovenia as a backup country for moving further to Europe.

Basically, Russians live in large cities of Slovenia (if you can call such settlements of this country) - Ljubljana, Krana, Maribor, Koper, Celje. Those with high incomes move to the vicinity of high-mountain lakes - Bled and Bohinj - or to the sea.

Working in Slovenia for Russians - difficulties and prospects

Russian migrants are employed in the same way as all foreigners. In order to obtain a work permit, the law requires a special guarantee from the person or organization that is the employer. The period of validity of such a permit usually does not exceed one year. Foreigners have no chance of getting a good high-paying job... Often they are offered vacancies that require heavy unskilled labor: construction, sawmill, woodworking, and so on. Mostly migrants work as seasonal workers in agriculture, since such positions do not attract local residents, and therefore foreigners are taken there. Obtaining a work permit and residence permit takes three to four months on average.

Some of the nuances of employment: reviews

Despite the fact that Slovenia is a tourist country, it is impossible for visitors to find work in this area. However, there is always a demand in the market for highly specialized skilled labor. Programmers, IT specialists, doctors, psychologists can always count on the fact that there will be jobs for them.

They earn 600-800 euros in unskilled work "clean", but in order to live for their own pleasure, you need to receive already from 1200 euros per month. Those who open a business in this country are often engaged in renting out real estate, investing in restaurants and mini-hotels, and freight transport.

The working day here begins earlier than in Russia, but often ends at four in the evening. People here know how to appreciate not only making money, but calmness and leisure.

It is easy to move to Slovenia for those who have a remote job or have an established business in Russia, since it is not so easy to find a job in Slovenia for a number of reasons. Firstly, there is something from little England in Slovenia: if a Slovenian's socket burns out, he calls his friend, a Slovenian electrician, if he wants to eat, he goes to the bakery that belongs to the uncle of his childhood friend, and so on. Such a small family row. At the same time, Slovenes are very cosmopolitan, they love Russians and there are many who know Russian, in some schools they used to teach it as a foreign language. There are very few vacant jobs, which is why emigrants from the African continent do not come here. But if the family has a good engineer, a highly demanded narrow specialist, you can find a job, I know a Ukrainian here who specializes in programming some narrowly focused automotive equipment, he sent in a resume and was accepted. Communicates in English here.

Slovenian university - the road to life

Getting an education at a Slovenian university also opens up access to a career. After four or six years of study (this depends on the theoretical or practical course training), the student can go to graduate school or get a job. It is much easier to do this with a diploma from a Slovenian university. In addition, the higher education received in this country gives the right to various scholarships from European universities and the possibility of further study.

Is it easy for Russians to adapt?

In general, Russian immigrants believe that the cost of food in Slovenia is about the same as in large cities of Russia, gas is more expensive and things are cheaper. In addition, Russians find it difficult to adapt to the small distances between Slovenian cities and crowds of people in narrow streets. Nevertheless, the people of Russia are very close to the culture, mentality and customs of the Slovenes. The products here are familiar but high quality and made for local consumption. The supply of cheap tomatoes from Holland or peaches from Spain is unpopular in this country.

What you have to get used to

Russians still find it difficult to get used to the relaxed local life, where everything is so safe that you don't even need to insure your car against theft. And one more important point, which the citizens of Russia are surprised to note for themselves: despite the difference between rich and poor, the boundaries between social classes are blurred. If you have money, then before the law you are absolutely equal with the poorest Slovene. There are no special clinics or other services "for the elite". It is not customary in Slovenia to show off fashionable branded items, expensive watch or a premium car. People here dress simply - jeans, tracksuits, jackets, and almost no one wears formal dresses, except for Ljubljana. Real estate is also very difficult to sell due to its high prices.

The cleaning lady comes to your audi. Many former compatriots ask themselves the question: how is it possible to wash the floors and drive the same car as mine? Someone is jarred, someone is surprised. In fact, the cleaning lady is the owner of the very cleaning company in which she herself works and earns good money. In local restaurants, you will often find the owner of the establishment personally serving the guests. In general, such examples are common. Houses with sea views are not only owned by wealthy businessmen, mostly ordinary citizens live in these houses, who inherit these houses from generation to generation.

How to have fun in Slovenia

Migrants from Russia complain that Slovenia does not have the same entertainment opportunities as in Moscow or St. Petersburg. If at home Russians on weekends prefer to go to restaurants, theaters and cinema, then it is customary to go to the mountains, to lakes and walk through the forests. Joint trips with children to nature are very popular. Moreover, the roads in Slovenia are even better than in neighboring Austria or Italy. Any interesting place with natural attractions is easily accessible by car or public transport.

How to "resolve issues"

Many Russians like that Slovenia does not have a very developed bureaucracy, and a request to issue documents as soon as possible will be formally considered and even fulfilled. In this country, freedom of speech is manifested very concretely and effectively. If you think something is wrong, then you can not be afraid to express it at any level. They will listen to you and correct the mistake. At the request of Russian immigrants, they even changed the procedural rules that were inconvenient for them. And if you suspect someone of corruption or other bad things, then just fill out a special form on the state website, and your information will be promptly checked. After all, the country is small and here almost everyone knows each other. Any relationship, especially in the field of business, should be established in an official way, and not "over a glass" or "in a bath." Such proposals often cause amazement among Slovenian partners and ruin the reputation of Russians.

About Slovenian

Linguistic affinity removes psychological barriers. It is compulsory to learn Slovene, without a good knowledge of the language it is impossible to get a job.

Many immigrants from Russia learn the language within the limits necessary for communication within six months. In addition, free language courses are rendered to foreigners with a residence permit. The Slovenian language is one of the most ancient among the southern Slavs.

There are several organizations in Slovenia that unite Russian speakers, as well as the Russian private school"Steps". But not all Russians take advantage of the opportunity to teach their children their native language. Many families prefer their child to speak Slovene and English. In addition, Slovenia has several other regional languages, one of which is Italian. Immigrants from Russia living in Primorye often send their children to Italian schools, because they believe that this is more promising than knowing only Russian and Slovenian.

About parenting

In Slovenia, there is no situation familiar to Russians when all life is a struggle. And it starts with raising children. You can send your child to any school closer to home, and no problems will arise. From one and a half years old, children are taken out for a walk outside the territory of kindergartens. Then they go for a walk in the city, holding on to colored strings. In summer and winter, they are taken to the sea or to the mountains on skis. All this is done in both public and private kindergartens and schools, and parents do not have to worry about where to put their children and how to fill their leisure time.

Children are incredibly loved and pampered here. A Slovenian woman who has given birth to a child simply enjoys him and his growth, she does not owe anything to society - to educate, raise a worthy citizen, so they do not strain - no one will judge, no one appreciates the child's bad behavior ... this is a child. You will not hear screams, swearing, heightened irritated tone, maximum, lamentations, if the child is completely dispersed. Children are sincerely admired for the most nonsense reasons - applause and shouts of "Super, bravo!" for a 5-year-old who has driven down the hill is a common thing. They walk alone in the street in the evening without any problems, but at 9 o'clock even teenagers crawl to their homes, go to bed early here, and wake up too early, respectively. I relaxed here, stopped locking front door that goes out into the street ... you must not lose your vigilance, of course, but the crime rate here is extremely low, and with regard to children, it is practically zero.

About pensioners

There are about 600 thousand pensioners in Slovenia, two million people. About 30 thousand of them receive the minimum pension, less than 100 euros. More than 120 thousand live on retirement from 100 to 500 euros. And half of the pensioners receive payments from 500 to 1 thousand euros. Retire after 65 years of age (24 years are required work experience). If inflation is growing in the country wage, then payments are indexed accordingly. But in order to receive this pension, you need to be a citizen of Slovenia. As for foreigners, especially citizens of the Russian Federation living in Slovenia, most of them receive a Russian pension there. A prerequisite for this is annual dispatch to Russian authorities social security special document - evidence that they are alive.

Well, those Russians who were able to receive a Slovenian pension speak well of the level social insurance and provision in this country. The Slovenian model is somewhat reminiscent of the Scandinavian one. The state collects special taxes on insurance of pensioners, unemployed, maternity benefits. Despite the economic crisis, the country retains all the important instruments of social support for its citizens. This is especially true for free education and medicine. The state did not sacrifice the good of the people for the sake of economic growth. Although taxes are higher here than in other European countries, social rights implemented more successfully.

What do they think of Russians?

The attitude towards migrants in Slovenia is quite good-natured, despite the 2015 crisis with Syrian refugees. There are not very many foreigners in the country, and they are of great interest. And towards the Slavs and Russian-speakers they are quite sympathetic. There is no particular sympathy for the Russians, but no one will consider you a second-class citizen. Slovenes are tolerant themselves and expect the same from others.

Can you compare Russia and Slovenia?

This is a difficult matter, because Slovenia is a small, compact country, and few people live here. Therefore, only very average figures have to be compared. The prices in the table are in US dollars.

Table: living standards in Russia and Slovenia

Products in Slovenia are slightly more expensive than the average in Russia, but they are of higher quality. The prices for some basic products are practically the same, and the local wine is better than the Russian one and is cheaper. Salaries and pensions in Slovenia are unambiguously higher than the average income of a resident of the Russian Federation, although, of course, they are far from wages in large cities of Russia - Moscow or St. Petersburg. But the country has good social security, and all citizens know and see what their taxes are spent on.

Pros and cons of living in Slovenia (summary table)

The virtues of life in Slovenia	Disadvantages of Living in Slovenia
Security, stability, equality between social classes	Difficult to find a job, a lot of checks when registering a business, nowhere to have fun
The country has an excellent geographical position - it is easy to leave for Italy, Austria, Germany	The country's migration policy puts more and more obstacles for foreigners, there are few opportunities to earn good money
Good social security and insurance, social support population	High taxes, social support is provided only to those residents of Slovenia who settle here and receive citizenship
Slovenes are welcoming, willing to help, tolerant towards foreigners	Slovenes are too frugal, do not like to "show off", wear "faceless" clothes
Diversity of natural resources, good ecology, many attractions, developed tourism	V tourism business it is almost impossible for non-Slovenes to get a job
Ability to influence government decisions, absence of corruption	Everyone in the country knows each other, it is difficult to "speed up the process" unofficially
Enough high level life, quality products	Salaries and pensions are not as high as in Western European countries
The Slavic language is close in sound to Russian	Without knowledge of the Slovenian language Good work do not take

Slovenia has become an attractive country not for immigration, but for further transit to Europe, which explains the tightening of the state's policy regarding the admission of foreigners. Indeed, if we analyze the migration growth of the country's population, then it is small and continues to decline. Slovenia is too close to the "seductive" states of Western Europe, where they find better and highly paid jobs and more prospects. Some people do not like the country with the traditional way of life, as if focused on itself. But at the same time, it is precisely these special features of Slovenia that attract people who want to experience the taste of life. After all, stability, security, practically zero crime and respect for a person are values ​​that we are losing more and more in our crazy life. And here, very close to us, is a country inhabited by Slavs who are close in language and mentality, where you can plunge into an oasis of tranquility, not fight with anyone, not fear for the future of children, but live and travel for your own pleasure.

How do foreigners from the states of the former USSR end up in Slovenia? In most cases, they sell real estate in their homeland, come with the accumulated money, hoping to find a job in the near future. But employment may be delayed. In this case, some decide to start their own business, especially since many already have a registered company. The rest are hampered by the lack of experience in starting a business from scratch, even in their own country ...
For the first and second there are consultants - specialists who will conduct market research, help to deal with local legislation, obtain permits from the authorities, collect required licenses, rent an office, find a manager ... We turned to one of these consultants for advice. What areas of activity in Slovenia are the most promising, how much you need to invest and when you can reach self-sufficiency. Experts from a Slovenian company tell Ruski Svet .

Idea # 1: Ecological Farm

You are buying a land plot in an ecological zone, far from big cities. Create infrastructure, advertise and invite guests to grow their own vegetables, hunt or fish on your farm.
Perspectives: Residents of Ljubljana, as well as immigrants from Austria, love to visit ecological farms in Slovenia. The demand for eco-friendly vacations is high. But the competition is small, which is an advantage. This type of activity can be called exotic, therefore, with the right marketing you can get big profits in the future. True, it is worth remembering the possible difficulties. Firstly, Slovenia is a small country, finding a large piece of land for this startup is not easy. Secondly, licenses may be required. It is difficult for a foreigner who does not have permanent residence in Slovenia to obtain a license to carry weapons and accompany a group of hunters. Therefore, for example, those who decide to open an ecological farm with the ability to catch wild animals will face difficulties.
Investments: Experts recommend that you have no illusions about cheap plots. Indeed, six hundred square meters can be bought even for € 15,000. But there will be no infrastructure or necessary communications around. As a result, you will have to spend money on engineering work. It is best to buy land already with the foundation of the house and a finished project. Prices per one hundred square meters of land with infrastructure start from € 250, the cost of farm land from € 10. You can try your luck at state auctions, where you can buy 2-3 times cheaper. It is realistic to achieve self-sufficiency for such a project in three to four years.

Olga Svetets, general manager companyRuski Svet: « In 2012, Ruski Svet's clients purchased 50 hectares of land near Murska Sobota, almost on the border with Austria and Hungary. The cost was about € 55,000. They built a house there and are now inviting tourists. On the territory of the land there is a pond where the owners raise carp and the guests fish. Also nearby is a forest belt, where you can hunt wild boar or chamois. Near the ostrich farm. The owners became self-sufficient in the farm after three years.
By the way, the owners of the farm needed to obtain a separate permit to purchase a plot of land with a forest belt, since it was under the protection of the state, by analogy with a national park. Our company helped them with this - the issuance of permits for the purchase of land takes on average 8-15 days. "

Idea number 2: Shop selling children's toys

Create an online store for the sale of children's toys, with an online store if desired. Developing a brand. Find a rental property. Planning an advertising strategy to attract the maximum number of buyers.
Perspectives: Children's goods and services are the kind of goods that you can make good money on in Slovenia. There are only four large stores selling children's toys in this country. We can say that the competition is moderate. But in this type of activity, first of all, it is important to conduct a competent market research to determine the needs of potential buyers.
Investments: Experts advise, first of all, to invest in creating a good store website. In Slovenia, it will cost about € 2,500. If you need to open an online store, then total costs can reach € 4000. The rest of the advertising costs depend on where the owner intends to rent the retail space. If the premises are located within the city limits, then the rental price can be about € 35 per sq.m. per month. In this case, you will not have to spend on promotion a large number of funds. But if the store is located outside the village, then it will be possible to rent a room for € 15 per sq.m. per month. But advertising will have to be generous. It will be possible to reach the self-sufficiency of the store in 3-5 years.

Olga Svetets: " In 2015, after a workshop organized by our company with its partner website, a client from Russia contacted us to study the relevant market. It was originally aimed at selling construction sets for children. It turned out that in Slovenia there are almost no such products, except for Lego. We helped in brand building and search retail space for rent, found sellers, in general, carried out full support from A to Z. The store is already open, works and generates income. We expect that we will reach self-sufficiency within a year. Lease of a retail space in a large mall costs the owner € 35 per sq.m. per month ”.

Idea number 3: Buying an office in Ljubljana to generate passive income

You are buying an office in the capital of Slovenia. Looking for a tenant who will rent it for a long time. Thus, you get income.
Perspectives: The capital of Slovenia, Ljubljana, is business center country. Therefore, offices for rent are in demand. Especially those with an area of ​​50 to 150 sq. M. Many objects are already being sold with a tenant. An office with an area of ​​70 square meters, five minutes from the historic center of Ljubljana, can be purchased for € 110,000. It will be possible to rent it for € 12-15 per square meter per month. The income from one office is probably not enough to live on. A few small premises may well provide everything necessary for the owner's family.
Investments: On average, a square meter of office real estate in Ljubljana costs € 1,500. Such premises can be rented out for € 12-15 per sq.m. per month. The tenant in Slovenia pays all costs for the maintenance of the property. Therefore, the owner receives a net profit.

Olga Svetets: “Let us remind you that there is an opportunity to make money in Slovenia by purchasing ready business... Explore possible options you can on our website www.real estate-slovenia.rf, also our company can offer options already with tenants. Compared to residential real estate, the office has a big advantage. Commercial properties are usually purchased with VAT, which is 22% in Slovenia. Thus, these costs must be added to the cost of the office. But there is a possibility not to pay VAT, and specialists of Ruski Svet consult in detail on this topic before purchasing. This way you can save a significant amount. "

Not all types of businesses in Slovenia can be started by yourself. So, medicine has always been the privilege of the state. One of the possible startups could be the opening medical center by the type of "family planning". But so far, the authorities have not approved the possibility of private participation in this type of activity. For details, contact consultants from Ruski Svet.

An Internet marketer from Rostov-on-Don, a year ago she moved with her family to Slovenia, opening a business there.

I am a manager by education - on maternity leave I was looking for a part-time job, I began to engage in copywriting. So it gradually grew to internet marketing and its own business. We lived in Rostov-on-Don, and I had clients from Moscow, the Czech Republic, and the USA. The idea to move has been ripe for a long time, dissatisfaction with local realities has been accumulating, besides, children greatly change the perception of the surrounding reality - you start to care more about safety, the quality of medicine, you try to plan something.

I began to look for opportunities - we had been looking at the Czech Republic for a long time, but it was already 2013, it was clear that business emigration there had become much more complicated. We applied for a student visa, but the presence of two children and a higher education gave the Czech authorities a reason to doubt our intentions - we were refused. The document said that we are already qualified enough to continue to study (in general, we planned to enter another specialty in a bachelor's degree, but at the beginning to finish language courses in order to study for free - in the Czech Republic there is free higher education for foreigners).

Since I really wanted to move and I was in a suitcase mood, I remembered about Slovenia, about which I knew a lot from the stories of friends. We didn't see it as an interesting option. They began to study, realized that it was a beautiful, safe country, and decided to move there. We found an intermediary company that helped with starting a business. In November 2014, the four of us moved.

My company specializes in Internet marketing, at the moment I have some of my clients in Russia, plus I am an expert at one of the Moscow agencies, I also work here with local companies - for example, I advise compatriots who moved here and started a business. The market is still new to me, and I do not risk offering complex services. Recently I started to cooperate with a Slovenian company.

To open a business, you need to obtain confirmation of tax residency in Russia, obtain a tax number in Slovenia and deposit 7,500 euros of authorized capital.

Year in Ljubljana

One of the confirmations that we were not mistaken with the country was this case: when we came here for the first time in the spring of 2014, on the market square in Ljubljana we got into a conversation with my grandmother. She, by the way, spoke excellent English, and besides, she was very happy to communicate with people from Russia - she remembered Russian. At that moment, we remembered the terrible stories of our friends living in Prague, about how the older generation treats them negatively and how strongly Crimea influenced the Czechs' perception of Russians.

We realized that there would be no negative attitude towards us in Slovenia. During the year that we lived here, we saw only friendliness. In a polyclinic or hospital, doctors of the older generation happily read poetry in Russian when they hear that we are from Russia - Russian was taught here during the times of Yugoslavia.

In general, there are no problems with the language: on the one hand, those who do not know English quickly learn Slovenian, on the other hand, in ordinary everyday life you can easily get by with English - you can rent an apartment, buy a car, and go to a store. Although when renting an apartment, you still need to know at least a little bit of Slovenian and make a list of questions to ask the landlord. In general, in terms of integration, I would say that everything happens organically in our country.

We have two children: a daughter goes to a regular school, a son - in a correctional school (he has autism). One of the main reasons for the move was the condition of our son. In Russia, at some point, we could no longer go out for a walk, because we were constantly faced with aggression, with inappropriate behavior of adults and children (we had to go out only closer to night, so that there was no one on the playgrounds). That is, the story of Natalia Vodianova's sister is very familiar to me. And here such children are treated absolutely normally, here, in general, children can do anything, no one will boil at a child who goes to a restaurant and gets confused at the waiter's feet. Moreover, for a special child. It is obvious that it is easier for the son here. Plus, there is much more help from the state: there are special centers where children can work with dogs, for example.

We have a bad history of interaction with Russian medicine. For example, a 7-year-old child was diagnosed only here - for 5.5 years we went around a bunch of doctors, no one could say what was wrong with him. Here, after the first visit to the neurologist, a diagnosis was made, which was later confirmed twice.

As for Slovenian education, its assessment strongly depends on who you talk to. Someone who is very strict with their children, the first months express the opinion that the child is degrading, "how bad everything is here" and how urgently it is necessary to hire a tutor. But if you are fed up with this drill and inadequate teachers, you are happy, because your child goes to school with joy, quickly finds friends and does not complain about the teacher.

Renting a two-room apartment 20 minutes from the center of Ljubljana will cost 450 euros, utility bills in the summer - about 100 euros, in winter 200-250 euros - depending on how you heat. Within 400 euros you can find a one-room apartment, for 200-300 euros - a room, for 600 euros - a three-room apartment.

Business

A residence permit is issued on a specific basis: employment, family reunification or education. A residence permit is first given for a year, then it can be extended for another year, and then - for 2 (to obtain citizenship, you need to live in the country for 10 years. Persons who have received higher education in Slovenia can apply for citizenship after 7 years).

There are certain requirements for extending a residence permit, but they are not very strict now - the main thing is for the company to work, and it does not matter if it works with a plus or a minus. After all, we pay ourselves a salary anyway. You must pay at least 540 euros, the minimum subsistence level is 270 euros. Someone pays a large salary so that there is enough for all family members, and someone pays a "minimum wage", and relatives are provided with a deposit account - you can show money in another way. It turns out that the net costs of 400 euros for all payments go - tax, social, medical, plus an accountant (60-70 euros).

When we moved, my contracts with Russian companies brought me 2000 euros - just the amount needed to provide for four people. After the collapse of the ruble, all this turned into 1000 euros. I had to start spinning and spinning and find earnings in euros.

Moving opportunities

As with most other countries in the world, you can move to Slovenia by enrolling in a local university. However, you need to keep in mind that you will arouse great suspicion in the consulate if you are 40 years old, you already have a family and several entities. It is much easier for yesterday's high school graduates or first-year students. Education in Slovenia for foreigners is mainly paid - about 2-3 thousand euros per year. There are programs in English, but this is usually a master's degree, and a bachelor's degree is mainly in Slovenian.

The best advice for those who want to emigrate to Slovenia by enrolling in a local university is to be young, unmarried and uneducated (just kidding). Those who want to study here need to master the language. An acquaintance of mine has now entered school, despite the fact that he studied the Slovenian language for 8 months, it is difficult for him. It is ideal when you enter here for the first year, after completing 2-3 courses in your homeland.

Russians in Slovenia

If you ask a Slovene, of course, he will say that there is a crisis, unemployment, everything is bad and you cannot see a pension, but if you talk to Russian-speaking emigrants who have moved recently and absolutely deliberately, they will say that there are difficulties here, but much better than in Russia. For example, you can plan here. People who did not dare to plan for six months in our country start planning for 5-10 years here.

Business emigration is the most popular scheme among self-sufficient adults. Someone buys farms, someone wants to produce milk, someone is engaged in tourism, someone opens shops, tango or yoga schools, someone sells Adyghe cheese, i.e. Russians who have moved are engaged in all sorts of things. This is normal middle class that just caters to your needs.

My friends moved in with 10,000 euros in hand - they started subletting housing. First, they removed the cheapest one - they repaired it, started renting it out, saved up money, divided it into rooms - and started renting it out. It paid off within a year.

How to look for a job in Slovenia

Until recently, I worked from home. Now I have started cooperation with a Slovenian company and work in an office. Just like that from the street, especially if you are a foreigner, it is extremely difficult to find a job - I managed to do it through my acquaintances.

Of course, you will be hired with a work permit, the question is on what conditions. You need to be prepared for the fact that you will increased requirements that you will do much more for the same salary than your Slovenian colleagues.

Those who want to move through business emigration need to have a safety cushion - so that they just have money for a year in advance in case everything goes bad and there will be no income. You need to move with wide open eyes, having thoroughly studied the information, talking with those who have moved. I came across guys who were told: "You just come, by opening a company, having received a residence permit, you will find a job." It is not true. You won't find a job here. You don't have to rely on a Slovenian company to hire you. To an ordinary person it must be borne in mind that it will work for itself. The Slovenian market is very small: you do not need to rely only on it and do not need to limit yourself to it (a company registered in the EU can work everywhere). The most important thing is to know why you are moving, otherwise dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction will definitely arise.

There are several ways to open a business in Slovenia for Russian citizens in 2020. To enter the country you need.

Citizens from other countries who arrived in Slovenia in 2020 for organizing a commercial business at the first stage are allowed to open:

• LLC (limited liability company).
• Affiliated companies.
• Representative offices (dealerships, branches).
  Over time, with successful activity, it is given the go-ahead to organize enterprises of other forms.

Limited liability company

The procedure for registering such a company in Slovenia as LLC is allowed if there are 15 founders who have no criminal record.

The process begins upon presentation of the tax number to the registration authority. That is, you need to visit the fiscal service and present there Required documents... The presence of all founders is required.

The registration body begins to consider the submitted documents in the presence of all founders, the management corps of the created Slovenian organization. Variants of the formation of an enterprise by a foreigner are allowed, when in one person he is the founder and director.

Before the start of the event, an individual opens an account with a financial and credit institution in Slovenia, into which 7500 euros of authorized funds are placed.

Subsequently, the money is allowed to be spent on fiscal payments, wages of full-time employees. You can buy equipment, spend money on updating the computer base, improving the work of office staff.

Affiliated undertaking

It is required to provide the tax number of the parent organization and the head of the new commercial structure... A mandatory document for presentation is a police clearance certificate on the territory of the country.

Registration of a subsidiary in Slovenia requires the personal presence of the head of the parent organization and the future chief executive officer of the subsidiary. 7,500 euros of authorized capital is deposited into an account opened with a bank in the country.

Representation

Registering a branch is easy. The procedure is unified to the point of impossibility, which facilitates the inflow of foreign investment into the country. A simple algorithm of actions is proposed. Mandatory requirements are to provide:

1. Tax number.
2. Police clearance certificate on the territory of the Balkan state.
   It is not necessary to open a bank account in a financial and credit institution of the state for the authorized capital, since this was done a priori by the parent organization.

Loans and loans

The state of Slovenia, in which business immigration to its territory is welcomed, does a lot to financially support educated organizations at the first stage of economic and industrial development. The government of the country under a special program helps to develop business in Slovenia.

After a year of work for small foreign companies, the government is helping to develop business in Slovenia, paying a lot of attention to the issue. Loan is issued for intensification, expansion commercial activities.

Banking structures are engaged in lending on generally accepted grounds.

You can get a loan by first submitting a business plan and completing necessary requirements jar.

Entity who has established a company in the country can count on a bank loan after 12 months of the organization's work. There are also deviations from the rule.

From the European Commission and the government development promising business in Slovenia receives financial support. The European Commission and the government of the country provide loans without interest charges, as well as non-repayable loans.
A Russian businessman who founded a small business in the country is legally equated with the national leader in this aid cluster commercial organization... Firms established by foreigners receive specific minimum investments in the form of assistance.
