Temporary refuge in Slovakia: where to go and how to book?
Not every police station handles foreign-residence matters. For dočasné útočisko you need the correct Foreign Police process and, under current guidance, a reservation.
Short answer
Choose a Foreign Police office that handles this procedure, book through the Interior Ministry system, then build your route. Snina has a dedicated satellite workplace for temporary refuge.
What to do step by step
- 1
Complete the electronic form when the current procedure requires it.
- 2
Choose a Foreign Police office that handles your situation.
- 3
Book an appointment through the Interior Ministry system.
- 4
Re-check the exact address before travelling because offices can move.
- 5
Use 'Route in Google Maps', then BESSMERA Assist at the counter.
Important
Other residence procedures can be territorially tied to your address, so 'go to the nearest office' is not always correct.
