Europe is home to 44 countries, each offering a rich tapestry of cultures, histories, and landscapes, from the snow-capped peaks of the Alps to the sun-drenched beaches of the Mediterranean.

Visa applications? Not exactly riveting, but often essential and always unavoidable.

We’ve done the research and pulled everything together to save you time, effort, and energy.

Parents should ensure that their child's documents meet the official travel requirements for Slovenia.
