Slovakia is part of the EU and visitors entering from other Schengen-member countries do not require a visa but must show valid ID (such as a passport). For others, a three month (90 day) visa is available for visitors.

Slovakia is part of the Euro currency union so uses the Euro (EUR) for currency.
