Can my family members get permanent residence with me in Slovakia?

Family is a central basis for permanent residence in Slovakia. A spouse and dependent minor children can in many cases obtain permanent residence, and where the link is to a Slovak citizen this can be granted without the long qualifying period that applies to other applicants.

Each family member applies in their own right and must show the relationship, suitable accommodation and that they can be supported. Because the rules differ depending on whether your sponsor is a citizen or a resident, confirm which route applies before your family applies.
