The Slovak Republic is a landlocked country in Central Europe south of Poland. This country, with a population of over 5 million people, shares borders with Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Ukraine. The government is a parliamentary democracy with a president as chief of state and a prime minister as head of government.
The area of Slovakia was under the control of the Hungarians from the early tenth century until 1918. After World War I, when the Austro-Hungarian Empire was defeated, the Czechs and the Slovaks were united to form the nation of Czechoslovakia. In 1939, Slovakia became independent and allied with Hitler. After World War II, Czechoslovakia was re-formed, and in 1948 fell to the Communists.
Communist rule ended in 1989 with the “Velvet Revolution.” In 1993, after the peaceful “Velvet Divorce,” the country again divided into the Slovak Republic and the Czech Republic. Slovakia became a member of the Economic Union (EU) and NATO in 2004.
For the traveller, Slovakia has mountains and ski resorts, caves and caverns, spas, and medieval towns and castles. There are five Slovak caves that are designated with UNESCO World Heritage Site status.

To minimize the risk of becoming a victim of petty crime, avoid showing signs of wealth. Keep valuables and money out of sight. Do not carry large sums of cash. Safeguard your important documents, such as your passport. Be cautious and always be aware of your surroundings, especially at night.
Reports indicate an increase in numbers of thefts due to drink-spiking in bars and nightclubs, particularly around the old town pedestrian area in Bratislava. Accept only drinks that you have watched being prepared and never let your food or drinks out of your sight.
There have also been reports of foreigners being charged exorbitant prices for drinks or fraudulent charges against credit cards. Ask for a menu that shows drink prices. Everyone over 15 years of age is required by law to carry a passport at all times. It is illegal to take photographs of military or government buildings and installations.

Due to a significant increase in the number of displaced persons entering Slovakia from Ukraine, there may be delays at border crossings and on nearby roads. Transportation, accommodation and other essential services may be strained due to the high demand.
