We help you get legal: temporary protection, a živnosť trade licence, residence permits and turnkey business set-up. We speak English, Russian and Ukrainian.
We accompany you — or go on your behalf — to the cudzinecká polícia, the živnostenský úrad and the insurance offices, so you never face the counter alone.
The cost is written into the contract before work begins. No "pay a bit more" halfway through.
We warn you about renewal and filing dates well in advance so nothing slips past you.
Fluent English, Russian and Ukrainian. We translate every Slovak document and explain it in plain words.
We review your case free of charge and propose a plan and a timeline.
We check every document and order translations and apostilles.
We book the slot, fill in the applications and go there with you.
We track the decision and respond to any requests from the authorities.
Some tasks we handle together with specialised partners — that way you get an expert in each area instead of a generalist in all of them.
Admission to Slovak universities and colleges
We guide students together: Smart Study handles choosing the university, the documents and enrolment; we handle the visa, residence permit and legalisation after the move.
Partner websiteŽivnosť done in 4 days. I live in Košice and never went to their office — everything over WhatsApp, one trip to the úrad to sign. They actually explained the health insurance part; I had spent a week googling and only got more confused.
My employer sat on the paperwork for a month. They wrote to HR themselves and three days later it was done. We went to the police on Hrobákova together — genuinely helped, I would not have known which window to go to.
Wrote on Sunday evening, had a plan Monday. Extended without queuing. Only thing — they were a bit late to the first meeting, but they did warn me. Would recommend overall.
Swapped my Ukrainian licence, no exam. Waited 5 weeks for the Slovak one — that is the inspectorate, not them. They got my medical certificate sorted the same day.
Could not decide between živnosť and s.r.o. for ages. They laid it out with numbers in half an hour — went with živnosť, no regrets. Filed once, got my card in July.
Got my engineering diploma recognised. Turns out you file with the okresný úrad, not the ministry — I would never have known. Took about two months.
