Marketplaces in Slovenia: where to sell in 2026, and what it takes

The marketplaces that matter in Slovenia are Mimovrste and Big Bang. Selling there means a local-language listing, a VAT registration (or OSS), EPR registrations (Packaging, WEEE and batteries through producer obligations) and customer service in Slovenian. SAWA can open Slovenia on request. As Merchant of Record, we sell in our name, so you skip the local registrations.

Rules before revenue

VAT, EPR and compliance in Slovenia

Selling abroad is simple, until the rules start. This is what applies in Slovenia. Last checked November 2026: rules and rates change, so confirm with an adviser before you act on them.

VAT: 22% standard rate

Holding stock in Slovenia, for example through a marketplace fulfilment programme, requires a local VAT registration. Shipping from another EU country means reporting through the One-Stop Shop (OSS) once cross-border B2C sales pass €10,000 a year, and the Slovenia rate then applies. Sellers outside the EU usually need a VAT registration or fiscal representation as well.

EPR: producer responsibility

Slovenia applies the EU producer responsibility rules for packaging, electronics (WEEE) and batteries. A seller that places goods on the market registers with a national scheme or producer responsibility organisation and reports volumes. The details differ per country and change often, so we confirm the current requirements for Slovenia when you ask us about it.

Language and labelling

Listings, instructions and safety information in Slovenian. Under the GPSR (General Product Safety Regulation) the listing also needs the details of a responsible person in the EU.

Returns and consumer law

EU consumer law gives shoppers 14 days to withdraw from a distance purchase, and marketplaces in Slovenia expect returns to be handled quickly and in the local language. Product liability and the GPSR responsible person stay with the legal seller.

Which first?

Which marketplace first in Slovenia?

By category

  • General: Mimovrste
  • Electronics: Big Bang
  • Second-hand: Vinted

By brand stage

A new brand in Slovenia starts with one anchor marketplace and learns what converts before it adds a second. A brand with a proven range adds the category leader and the local favourite. Whichever you pick, steer on profit, not on revenue: marketplace fees, advertising and VAT/EPR all come off the sale before it becomes your payout, and the SAWA Console shows every line.

FAQ

Selling in Slovenia: your questions

What is the biggest marketplace in Slovenia?

Mimovrste is the dominant marketplace in Slovenia. Rankings differ by category, so check the electronics, fashion and home lists on this page before you choose where to start. In Slovenia the language of the listing is Slovenian.

Can I sell on Mimovrste from outside Slovenia?

Usually yes, but every marketplace sets its own seller requirements and they change. Expect to need a company that can invoice in the EU, VAT and EPR registrations, and a listing in the local language. If SAWA sells for you as Merchant of Record, the registrations and the listing sit with us and your brand and stock stay yours.

Do I need a Slovenia VAT number to sell to consumers there?

If you hold stock in Slovenia, for example through a marketplace fulfilment programme, you need a local VAT registration. If you ship from another EU country, you report the sales through the One-Stop Shop (OSS) once your cross-border B2C sales pass €10,000 a year, and the Slovenia rate of 22% applies. SAWA registers and remits in its own name.

What is EPR in Slovenia?

EPR is extended producer responsibility: whoever first places packaging, electronics or batteries on a national market is responsible for collecting and recycling them, and pays for it. Slovenia applies the EU producer responsibility rules for packaging, electronics (WEEE) and batteries. A seller that places goods on the market registers with a national scheme or producer responsibility organisation and reports volumes. The details differ per country and change often, so we confirm the current requirements for Slovenia when you ask us about it.

How does SAWA sell in Slovenia?

You ship your stock to SAWA on consignment. We list, advertise and sell as the legal seller, handle customer service and returns, and pay you out in euros. VAT, EPR and product liability are ours, and you follow every line in the SAWA Console.
