Indians traveling to Slovakia for tourism purposes can apply for the Slovakian tourist visa. Slovakia is a Schengen country, so you can apply for a Schengen visa. This visa is valid for 90 days but can be extended to 180 days on special circumstances. A copy of your return-ticket reservation must be provided. It is not recommended to purchase the ticket before obtaining the visa. Travelers are required to provide travel medical insurance confirmation of minimum 30,000 € coverage within Slovakia and the entire Schengen area. The currency restriction for entry into and exit out of Slovakia is 10,000 euros. Upon arrival in Slovakia, you must register with the local Border and Alien Police within three working days if you are staying in a private home. Hotels and official accommodation providers will register you automatically. Slovak authorities strictly enforce residency laws. Foreigners who stay beyond 90 days without a residency permit may be ordered to depart, or may even be deported with a possible ban on re-entry to the entire Schengen area. Domestic and foreign organized criminal organizations are well established in Slovakia. Though uncommon, violent incidents sometimes do occur. Within Bratislava the tourism industry is generally regulated and rules are regularly enforced. Hazardous areas/activities are identified with appropriate signage and professional staff is typically on hand in support of organized activities. In the event of an injury, appropriate medical treatment is widely available in the city. If you are over 15 years of age, you are required by law to carry a passport and/or a Slovak identity card at all times. A photocopy of your passport is not sufficient, although we recommend that you keep a photocopy of your passport in a safe place. Slovak customs authorities enforce strict regulations concerning temporary import or export of firearms, antiquities, medications, and business equipment
