Social assistance

Material needs

A foreigner who has applied for temporary refuge or already has proof of tolerated residence in Slovakia (odídenec – departee) is entitled to assistance in material needs. Refugees from Ukraine are entitled to the basic benefits and contributions to the same extent and under the same conditions as Slovak citizens. In case of Ukrainian refugees ontribution will be due to any unprovided child who would otherwise be in compulsory school attendance, even if they are not currently attending it.

Foreigners who will have accommodation based on an accommodation contract do not have right for accommodation contribution.

When deciding about whether people are members of the same household only the people who stay in the territory of the Slovak Republic will be considered members of the same household.

More information as well as application forms can be found on psvr.gov.sk

Material and food aid

Several organizations and municipalities organize collections of material aid. You can find an updated list of outlets on the city pages.
