The Slovakia Tourist Visa is a standard Schengen Type C visa for Indian travellers exploring Slovakia (Bratislava, High Tatras, Spiš Castle) or combining it with neighbouring Schengen countries. Processed via VFS Global India on behalf of the Embassy of the Slovak Republic, New Delhi.
What it costs
Paid directly to Slovakia / VFS — these are not our service fee, and we never mark them up.
Figures per VFS Global, last verified 12 May 2026. Fees change without notice — the official page is final.
Embassy fees are set in EUR by the Slovak Embassy — the INR charged at VFS varies with the daily exchange rate. All fees payable in Cash / Card / UPI and are non-refundable regardless of visa outcome. Family members of EU/EEA/Swiss nationals are exempt from the embassy fee.
Flights · Hotels · Insurance · Itinerary
Slovakia applies the Schengen rules, so travel insurance is not a nice-to-have — it is a legal condition of the visa.
2 of 4 are compulsory for Slovakia
Where people slip: Flying into one city and out of another with nothing showing how you travel between them. Officers read the whole route, and an unexplained gap reads as a plan that does not hold together.
Book for ₹708 (+₹472 per family member)Where people slip: Free-cancellation bookings are accepted, but if the entire file is free-cancellation the officer sees a trip nobody has committed to. Some of it should be real spend.
Confirmed hotel booking, ₹590 per hotel: message us firstWhere people slip: Buying cover for the adults and forgetting the children. Every traveller needs their own EUR 30,000, infants included — a real refusal we have seen on a family of four.
What a Schengen policy must showWhere people slip: Spending more nights in another Schengen country than in Slovakia. That gets a file rejected before it is even assessed.
The letter your itinerary attaches toWe can arrange the flight reservation, the hotel and the itinerary for your Slovakia file — each sold separately.
We are a B2B travel agency as well as a visa consultancy, working with partners including Riya Travel — so the flight reservation and the confirmed hotel booking both come from us, and you deal with one team. Every booking is a real one under your own name. We do not sell travel insurance: buy the policy directly from an insurer.
None of them is part of our visa fee: each is bought on its own, at the price below, with or without our visa service.
Flight reservation ₹708 (+₹472 per extra family member) · Confirmed hotel booking ₹590 per hotel · Travel itinerary ₹1,499. GST included.
Delivery. Usually within 30 minutes during office hours, Mon–Sat 10:00–18:00 IST. Confirmed hotel bookings are not bought online: message us first on WhatsApp or email info@sureshotvisa.com with the city, dates and travellers.

Answer 10 quick questions to see your likelihood of approval. This is not a guarantee — final decision is always with the Embassy — but it flags common weak spots so you can address them before applying.
What's the primary purpose of your trip?
How long do you plan to stay?
Have you previously visited any Schengen country?
Have you ever been refused a Schengen (or any country's) visa?
Past refusals must be disclosed — they show up in VIS database across Schengen countries.
Do you have confirmed travel bookings?
Reservations are enough; a paid ticket is not required.
What's your current employment status?
What's your typical 3-month bank balance?
Schengen needs ~₹700/day covered. For a 10-day trip, minimum ₹70,000 stable balance.
How many years of Income Tax Returns (ITR) can you show?
What are your strongest ties to India (return-intent)?
Embassies want evidence you'll come back — not overstay.
Who are you travelling with?
Indicative only — final decision is always with the Embassy.
Frequently asked
Yes — a Slovakia Schengen visa lets you travel across all 29 Schengen countries for the stay allowance printed on the sticker, provided Slovakia is your main destination.
Up to 6 months before travel; minimum 15 days. The sweet spot is 4–6 weeks before departure.
No — most applicants don't face an interview. The Slovak Embassy may call applicants in only if the case raises questions.
Absolutely not. A tourist visa does NOT authorise paid employment. Working on a tourist visa results in deportation and a Schengen ban.
You receive a refusal letter with the reason. You can reapply anytime with stronger documentation. SureshotVisa specialises in refusal rebuilds.
