Slovakia visa rules for Thai citizens
Slovakia is in Schengen: short tourism or family visits use a type C Schengen visa, while workers need the job vacancy confirmed through the Slovak labour office before a residence permit is issued.
Documents and translations
Family visits often need an accommodation confirmation certified by the host under Slovak foreign police rules; Thai civil documents such as birth or marriage certificates should be translated into Slovak or English as the mission specifies.
Applying from Thailand
Slovakia has no resident embassy in Bangkok, so check which representing state or application centre handles Schengen applications before booking.
