“The mission of the Honorary Consulate is also to assist natural persons and legal entities in solving their problems during their stay in the Slovak Republic. These tasks cannot be carried out without your help. Therefore, I would like to ask you, representatives of state administration and self-government, to collaborate in this activity.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Your help and collaboration will assist the development of our region and whole Slovakia. History shows that when cooperation is supported between the region and foreigners from remote countries, and when bridges of cooperation are created, then it is a win-win situation for all – nations, economies and individuals”.
