State housing reimbursement program

Rent for housing for persons who received temporary asylum is paid to the landlord by the state. Free accommodation is possible only on the basis of the Agreement on the provision of housing to refugees (Zmluvy o przysztรกnรญ odรญdencovi). The contract must contain Slovak and Ukrainian texts. The contract must also list all persons with whom you will live, the number of living rooms available to you.

You must report your free accommodation to the municipality and once a month personally confirm the number of nights and persons to whom accommodation has been provided. If you want to end free accommodation, you must notify the landlord at least 2 days in writing. More information here .
