Under Slovenian law, anyone can register a yacht under the Slovenian flag regardless of their nationality. However, for non-EU nationals, the yacht must be owned through an EU company registered in a member state of the European Union.

EU nationals may hold the yacht under their personal name, which means they can own the yacht directly as an individual. Non-EU nationals, on the other hand, are required to establish a company in an EU member state, which will then own the yacht.
