Register of Companies with High Added Value

The Slovene Enterprise Fund (SEF) maintains the Register of Companies with High Added Value, which is part of the system for promoting innovation, growth, and development of companies in Slovenia. The aim of this register is to identify and support companies that create high added value, thereby contributing to the economic development of Slovenia.

Companies with high added value are those that contribute to greater productivity, quality and innovation in the economy.

To be entered in the Register of Companies with High Added Value, companies must meet the legally prescribed conditions laid down in Article 30 of the Investment Promotion Act.

Companies must usually prove that their activity contributes to higher productivity and that they are actually involved in sectors with high added value and:

• must be older than 3 years;
• must generate added value per employee that is at least 50% above the Slovenian average, or at least 25% above the Slovenian average if the annual growth in the number of employees is at least 10%;
• must have more than 20 employees;
• annual income must be at least EUR 1,000,000;
• must not be in liquidation or bankruptcy proceedings;
• all tax liabilities must be settled for the last six months.

The register offers an important tool for companies that want to confirm their success and take advantage of the various benefits associated with this status. If you are a company that meets the conditions, entry in the register can be a strategic step for further development.
