Slovakia: visa decisions in Mexico
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|

In 2025, Slovakia’s embassy and consulates in Mexico (Mexico City) received 4 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 4. Applications rose by 300% compared with 2024 (1).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 5.5% of the applications lodged in Mexico that year, from 3.3% at the consulates of Spain to 9.8% at those of France. Slovakia’s consulates worldwide refused 9.6%. Slovakia was the 16th most applied-for Schengen state in Mexico.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Mexico, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
