The proposed Slovenian legislation addresses accessibility and use of payment means, which most closely aligns with payment instrument regulation, though the update lacks specificity on which payment products or services are targeted.
Low confidence — requires human review. The legislation may affect multiple payment service categories, but without detailed content, a secondary classification is uncertain; E-Money is selected as a plausible secondary given accessibility often applies to digital payment instruments.
Specialism
The proposal addresses accessibility and use of payment means, which relates broadly to customer protection and payment service accessibility, though the sparse legislative framework details limit confidence.
The legislation may establish regulatory requirements for payment instruments, potentially touching on prudential or operational standards, but the consultation-stage nature and lack of specific technical requirements make this secondary classification uncertain and requires human review.

TITLE: Slovenia's Ministry of Finance Proposes Accessibility and Payment Means Legislation
BODY:
On July 17, 2026, Slovenia's Ministry of Finance published a proposed law on the accessibility and use of payment means for public consultation. The proposed legislation, registered under government act number 2026-1611-0063, aims to establish regulatory requirements governing how payment methods are made accessible to the public.
The proposal is currently in preparation within the ministry and is available for public review through Slovenia's eUprava (e-Government) portal. The legislative document, which measures 658 kilobytes, addresses accessibility standards and the practical application of payment instruments in Slovenia. The consultation seeks to gather feedback from stakeholders and the public on the proposed framework before it advances through the legislative process.
The Ministry of Finance is accepting public comments on the proposed legislation until August 17, 2026. Following the consultation period, the proposal is scheduled to progress through the government's legislative timeline, with anticipated deadlines for draft completion, government committee review, and full government approval set for 2027. The final adoption of the legislation is targeted for the second quarter of 2027.
Members of the public and interested parties can submit comments through the eUprava portal. The ministry has also provided tools to assess the potential impacts of the proposed regulatory changes, allowing stakeholders to calculate effects and attach their analyses to formal submissions.
