    In the case of dependents who seek employment in the United States, an official request must be made by the Embassy of the Republic of Slovenia in Washington to the Office of Protocol in the Department of State. After the processing of the official request, the Slovene Embassy will be informed that the dependent may accept employment.
    In the case of dependents who seek employment in Slovenia the request shall be made by the Embassy of the United States of America in Slovenia to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Slovenia, which, after verification, shall then inform the United States Embassy that the dependent may accept employment. For employment in Slovenia, no work permits will be required.
