Apostolic Nunciature to Slovenia

The Apostolic Nunciature to Slovenia is an ecclesiastical office of the Catholic Church in Slovenia. It is a diplomatic post of the Holy See, whose representative is called the Apostolic Nuncio with the rank of an ambassador.

The Holy See was one of the first nations to recognize Slovenia as an independent nation and appointed its first representative in 1995. On 3 February 2016, Secretary of State Cardinal Pietro Parolin inaugurated the first permanent premises of the Apostolic Nunciature in Ljubljana.^[1]

The Apostolic Nuncio to Slovenia is usually also the Apostolic Delegate to Kosovo upon his appointment to said nation.
