Business advantages of Slovakia for IT
Moving to Slovakia is also called “business immigration.” This is due to the conditions that apply to those wishing to relocate. This option is great for freelancers, IT professionals, and large business owners.
More factual advantages of Slovakia can be found in the Doing Business 2020 report.
Company registration in Slovakia
Today, the most common legal form of a company in Slovakia is a limited liability company (s.r.o.). Therefore, those wishing to do business in Slovakia choose, as a rule, s.r.o.
Basic information about s.r.o.
- In Slovakia, obtaining a residence permit and business registration are closely related. Therefore, to register a legal entity, it is necessary to start obtaining an s.r.o.
- The need for a nominee director of the company for the time before obtaining the residence permit
- A legal entity in Slovakia does not have to pay health and social insurance contributions if there are no employees.
- The company owner is liable only for the contribution to the share capital, unlike a sole proprietorship which is responsible for all of its property.
The process of registering a legal entity in Slovakia
- Pay the state fee for the registration
- Register at the Entrepreneurship and Commercial Register
- Register with the tax office
- To obtain a tax number
- To open a bank account

Taxation in Slovakia
- Slovakia has a progressive income tax scale — the higher the income, the higher the tax.
