The Ljubljana Consular Section office works by appointment only and is therefore not open to the public at all times. See more information on how to make an appointment here.
Getting to the embassy
Our office is located on the 4th floor of the TR3 building at Trg republike 3, just opposite the National Parliament.
Parking
Commercial parking space is available on Trg republike square.
Security
Due to the global threat currently posed by terrorism, and the targeting of embassies, we do our utmost to ensure a safe and secure environment for your visit.
Please co-operate with the security guard as he conducts the check and control, each of which should take only a few minutes. The security measures in place are for the benefit of all visitors and staff.
Visitors to our office will have to go through the security checkpoint at the entrance. Mobile phones and electronic devices are not allowed into the embassy.
Disabled access
The British Embassy Ljubljana is keen to ensure that their buildings and services are fully accessible to disabled members of the public. Wherever possible, we have made our buildings and services accessible. Sometimes however, this is not possible due to security or other restrictions. In these situations we will endeavour to provide a service or access to a building in an alternative way to ensure equality of access for disabled people. To assist disabled visitors, we have set out below details of disabled access at this embassy. We hope this information is helpful.

- wheelchair access to the office is gained by using the lift
