How long is the Slovenian EU Blue Card valid, and can it be extended?

If your employment contract is shorter than two years, the Blue Card is granted for the contract period plus an extra three months, but never for more than two years at a time. A contract of two years or longer results in the maximum two-year card.

When your job continues, you apply to renew the card. Long-term legal residence on a Blue Card can also count toward EU long-term resident status, so keeping your permit continuously valid matters for any future permanent residence application.
