The main reception facility is the Asylum Home in Ljubljana, which accommodates up to 710 persons. In 2025, the Asylum Home accommodated mostly single men, the Kotnikova Branch Facility in Ljubljana exclusively hosted single men and the Logatec Branch Facility served as a reception/accommodation centre for women and families. Unaccompanied minors were accommodated in the reception/accommodation centre in Postojna.

Applicants can also request to reside in private accommodation (see Forms and Levels of Material Reception Conditions). 163 asylum applicants were living in private accommodation at the end of 2025.[1]

In the case of the Border Procedure, yet to be applied, persons expressing the intention to seek asylum can also be accommodated “close to the border”, if the requisite material reception conditions are guaranteed.[2] Other types of accommodation are not used in practice.
