Slovak Citizenship Consulting Services

Wendy Jamieson, who began her process after the new Slovak citizenship law went into effect in 2022, secured her own Slovak citizenship by descent in October 2024, tracing her roots through great‑grandparent lineage. Now living in Slovakia, she has developed an intimate understanding of Slovak genealogy and the opportunities it provides for acquiring EU citizenship through Slovak heritage.

From your first question about EU Citizenship to eligibility screening, through the submission appointment regarding Slovak citizenship by descent, and assistance with relocation to Slovakia (if desired), we cover every step of your journey into exploring your Slovak heritage and genealogy.

We have partnerships with certified interpreters and translators, along with other experts who can assist you in navigating the complexities of EU Citizenship, including options like Slovak citizenship by descent. Our team is knowledgeable in Slovak genealogy and can help you explore your Slovak heritage, ensuring you connect with your roots in Slovakia.

Expert-led tours and logistics for your first visit to explore your Slovak heritage or to facilitate your full move to Slovakia. Whether you're seeking EU citizenship or pursuing Slovak citizenship by descent, we can assist with your Slovak genealogy research. *Additional fees apply.

Consultation – We verify your eligibility for EU Citizenship and create a tailored roadmap to guide you step-by-step through the entire process. We only accept clients with clear eligibility for Slovak citizenship by descent. Slovak Document Collection – We assist in acquiring the necessary Slovak documents for your application, essential for establishing your Slovak heritage. Slovak Living Abroad Certificate – If you do not qualify for citizenship by descent, you might be eligible for the SLA Certificate, which grants you a residence permit. After three years of physical residency in Slovakia, you can then apply for citizenship. Citizenship Application – We help you fill out the application and prepare you to submit it along with the required documents. Submission appointments in Slovakia – You can expedite your application process by submitting it in Slovakia, rather than at your home consulate in the US. From Oath to EU/SK Passport – Completing the process in Slovakia is much faster. We can connect you with professionals who facilitate this process in Bratislava.
