Residence of a Union citizen and the right to work
What
The right to work in Slovakia is directly linked to residence. The EU/EEA citizen and Swiss citizen have the same legal status in employment relationship as the Slovak citizen. Your residence card therefore allows you to work. The company that hires you has to inform about it the Labour Office in writing by sending the so-called “Information card”.
Who
EU or EEA Member State citizens including Swiss citizens.
