Slovenia: visa decisions in Serbia
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 631 | 490 | 98 | 16.4% | 46.3% |
| 2024 | 586 | 498 | 59 | 10.5% | 41.4% |
| 2025 | 1,200 | 1,121 | 77 | 6.3% | 29.3% |
In 2025, Slovenia’s embassy and consulates in Serbia (Belgrade) received 1,200 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 1,121. The refusal rate was 6.3%. The refusal rate fell by 4.2 points from 10.5% in 2024. Applications rose by 105% compared with 2024 (586).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 5.7% of the applications lodged in Serbia that year, from 1.1% at the consulates of Greece to 16.9% at those of Croatia. Slovenia’s consulates worldwide refused 21.4%. Slovenia was the 8th most applied-for Schengen state in Serbia.
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 Serbia, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
