We represent clients in procedures for obtaining Slovenian citizenship, particularly in admissions to citizenship under Articles 12 and 3 of the Citizenship of the Republic of Slovenia Act (so-called extraordinary naturalization).

Our professionals also have experience in managing such projects in cooperation with family offices and in representing individuals with a pronounced international profile (high-profile clients).

We have successfully represented clients across a wide range of fields in which a national interest in granting citizenship must be demonstrated, including science, finance, business, sports, culture, and other areas of special national importance.

Extraordinary naturalization procedures are highly specific and discreet and require in-depth knowledge of the legal framework, as well as a strong understanding of the broader institutional and political context. We often manage such cases as structured projects that require careful planning and coordination among all relevant stakeholders. Our experts conduct these procedures based on deep expertise and experience gained through successfully completed cases from past practice.

We handle citizenship procedures holistically – from the preparation and submission of the citizenship application to obtaining a passport and providing legal support with the individual’s registration in the relevant national registers.

Within these processes, we also provide broader support in establishing our clients’ legal, business, and personal presence in Slovenia.

Our professionals also have experience in managing such projects in cooperation with family offices.

We also represent clients and have experience in naturalization procedures for descendants of Slovenian emigrants. In this context, we expressly caution against numerous abuses, particularly in the GCC region, where dishonest providers promise expedited acquisition of Slovenian citizenship; in many cases, such offers constitute fraud supported by falsified documentation. Where verification of document authenticity is required, our experts are available to assess credibility and advise on the genuineness of documentation and the realistic prospects of success in the procedure.
