Citizens of Mongolia need a Schengen visa for short stays in Slovakia, as Mongolia is listed in Annex I of Regulation (EU) 2018/1806 (consolidated version of 30 December 2025); Slovakia applies the common Schengen visa list.
Which Mongolian office issues passports and visas?
Passports and other formal consular services for Mongolian citizens are handled by the Mongolian Embassy in Prague (accredited to Slovakia).
Mongolia has no embassy in Slovakia. According to the Diplomatic List of the Slovak Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs (7 October 2026), the mission accredited to Slovakia is the Embassy of Mongolia in Prague. It is headed by Enkhbayar Budbazar (Chargé d’Affaires a.i.).

What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by Mongolia and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Mongolian citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
