Ljubljana, 15 September – A revised government regulation on electronic identification has introduced important simplifications for using Slovenia’s e-services. The key innovation is a virtual high-level identification method, where the physical ID card is required only during the initial setup.
With this change, users can now log in to e-services using the updated eOsebna mobile application, without the need to repeatedly scan their ID card on a phone or use a smart card reader.
According to the Ministry for Digital Transformation, this upgrade will make access to public e-services such as eUprava, eDavki, and ZZZS safer, faster, and easier—directly from a mobile phone. The Ministry expects this to significantly increase the use of digital services across the public sector.
Additional improvements introduced by the regulation include:
Ordering a PUK code through the mobile app, previously only possible at an administrative unit.
Mandatory training for officials who perform user identification during the issuance process.
Expansion of institutions authorized to issue mobile identity smsPASS. In addition to administrative units and consular offices, issuance is now possible at the Financial Administration (FURS), the Employment Service of Slovenia (ZRSZ), and directly through the provider of e-identification services.
This development marks another step forward in Slovenia’s digital transformation strategy, aiming to streamline administrative procedures and make state services more accessible to citizens and businesses.

For any high-growth company, crossing the line from small and medium-sized enterprise (SME ) to large corporation is a major milestone. In the European Union, however, this transition has historically been accompanied by a steep bureaucratic cliff. The moment a company outgrows its SME status, it is suddenly subject to the same extensive reporting, compliance […]
