Notes


1 Non-resident foreigners can opt to consider their rental income as income from business activities. In this case, they must register at the Agency of the Republic of Slovenia for Public Legal Records and Related Services to be considered as a sole trader. The property is jointly owned by husband and wife, but then taxed separately (50% upon each partner).

2 Under this case, the standard deduction is 25% of gross income, if some conditions are fulfilled. Instead of using the standard deduction option, taxpayers can opt to itemize their income-generating expenses but supporting documents must be presented.

3 Non-resident foreigners earning income considered as income from business activities are subject to progressive taxation on their net taxable income.
