Dear American Citizen in Slovenia:
Quarantine restrictions:
- The Slovenian government has removed all restrictions on travel outside one’s municipality of residence, but has called on citizens to continue to act responsibly. Gatherings are still prohibited.
- Stores will be closed Friday and Saturday, May 1 and 2 for the Labor Day holiday. Therefore this Sunday only (May 3rd), the government has authorized stores selling mostly food to open from 0800 to 1300 to avoid a consecutive three-day closure.

- Schools will reopen for some grades starting 18 May.
