Slovenia Company & Beneficial Ownership Directory
Company register search for 297,409 Slovenia companies, plus shareholder, officer and beneficial ownership records sourced directly from official government registries.
Slovenia company register data is public on the Poslovni register Slovenije (PRS, Business Register), run by AJPES, with company incorporations for certain entity types also passing through the Sodni register (Court Register); the PRS discloses shareholders directly for d.o.o. companies. Beneficial ownership sits on the register dejanskih lastnikov (register of beneficial owners), also at AJPES, aligned with EU anti-money-laundering directives at a threshold above 25% of capital shares or voting and management rights. Since August 2025, access is restricted to a legitimate-interest model covering journalists, civil society, AML-obliged entities, and parties entering a business relationship.

Analysis
What this data actually tells you about Slovenia
Slovenia’s central company register, the Poslovni register Slovenije (PRS), is administered by AJPES (Agencija Republike Slovenije za javnopravne evidence in storitve), with free searches available through the ePRS portal (registration required) and a twice-monthly bulk open dataset published on the Open Data Portal of Slovenia. For commercial companies, the underlying registration decision is actually made by the court registry (sodni register), with AJPES compiling and administering the consolidated PRS; AJPES itself decides registrations directly only for sole traders and property-rental registrants. On January 1, 2025, Slovenia adopted a new national SKD 2025 activity classification aligned with the EU’s NACE Rev. 2.1 update, meaning a company’s registered activity code in AJPES may have been remapped around that date — worth checking when relying on older classification-based verification logic.
Slovenia’s Register of Beneficial Owners (Register dejanskih lastnikov, RDL), also administered by AJPES, ended unrestricted public access on August 9, 2025, via the ZPPDFT-2C amendment implementing the Court of Justice of the EU’s November 2022 ruling against disproportionate public beneficial-ownership access. Access is now limited to AML-obliged entities, law enforcement and supervisory authorities, and parties who submit a formal request to AJPES demonstrating a legitimate interest — and unlike several EU peers, Slovenia is not among the 11 member states the European Commission opened infringement proceedings against in September 2025 for missing the July 10, 2025 deadline to transpose the EU’s 6th AML Directive access rules, having already stood up its own legitimate-interest regime by that point.
Slovenia company base, broken down
Charts render from live counts. Where coverage is partial, the excluded population is stated on the chart.
Company size, by disclosed headcount
By number of employees on file. Entities with no disclosed headcount are not counted in any band.
Enterprises by size category
2022 figures for Slovenia’s non-financial business economy (EU SME Performance Review population, which excludes agriculture, education, health and other largely non-market sectors): of 153,588 SMEs, 94.7% were micro (0-9 employees), 4.5% small, and 0.8% medium; a matching large-enterprise (250+) count for this population was not independently confirmed to a reliable, dated source in this pass. Separately, Slovenia’s national statistical office reported 228,944 total active enterprises across the whole economy in 2023, of which 95% were micro-enterprises, though medium and large enterprises together accounted for more than half of total turnover and 53.3% of employment despite their small share of count.

Foreign-controlled entities
Foreign-controlled enterprises represented 4.2% of Slovenia’s active enterprises by entity count in 2021 but accounted for 26.9% of employment, 32.9% of turnover and 27.3% of value added — per SURS’s inward FATS series, the most recent published; Germany, Austria and Switzerland controlled the economically most significant affiliates. Slovenia’s inward FDI stock reached €23.0 billion at the end of 2024, equal to 34.4% of GDP, with Austria, Luxembourg and Switzerland the leading investor countries as of end-2023.
Who uses Slovenia ownership data
The three checks this page's data is most often run for.
KYB onboarding
Verifying a Slovenia counterparty means confirming the beneficial owner behind the entity and evidencing where that answer came from, not just pulling the registered name.
AML and sanctions screening
Sanctions exposure often sits above the operating company, in a holding layer registered elsewhere. Screening the local entity alone will not surface it; screening the resolved ownership chain will.
Supplier and credit risk
Only 2 Slovenia entities have digitized accounts on file, so group membership is often a better solvency signal than a standalone balance sheet.
