Interest on a savings account

Neobanks often pay more than Slovenian banks, but some only pay the higher rate on a paid plan. The list is therefore ranked by what is left after a year once the plan fee is paid. Wise and Trading 212 are not in the list because they pay no interest on a bank deposit. Slovenian banks are compared in the savings account comparison and the deposit comparison.

On the right: what is left after one year, interest minus the plan fee.

Who holds your money and how it is protected

All the foreign providers here are regulated in the EU, but they are not protected in the same way:

  • Bank (Revolut, N26, bunq, Trade Republic):deposits are covered by the deposit guarantee of the bank’s home country up to €100,000 per person, the same as at a Slovenian bank.
  • E-money institution (Wise):not a bank. It keeps your money apart from its own, so creditors cannot take it if the company fails, but there is no deposit guarantee.
  • Broker (Trading 212):not a bank. Cash and securities are covered by the Cypriot investor compensation fund up to €20,000.

FURS and tax

Reporting the account. An account you open abroad, including one at a broker, has to be reported to the Slovenian Financial Administration (FURS) within 8 days of opening, through eDavki (form DR-Račun) or on form DR-02. Changes, such as closing the account, are reported too. Accounts at Slovenian banks need no report, as FURS gets that data itself.

Interest. Interest on deposits at banks in Slovenia and other EU countries is tax-free up to €1,000 a year in total. Above that, you file a return for the previous year by 28 February and pay 25% on the amount over €1,000. Returns from money market funds, such as Revolut Flexible Cash Funds, are not deposit interest and have to be reported whatever the amount. How, is explained in the article on Revolut and tax.

Investing. A foreign broker does not withhold Slovenian tax for you: you report gains on sales and dividends yourself. How they are taxed is covered in the article on ETF tax in Slovenia. When an individual investment account, where the provider handles the tax, is the better choice is worked out in the section INR or a regular brokerage account.

How we read the price lists: amounts apply to customers from Slovenia and to payments in euros unless stated otherwise. ATM costs are the provider’s own; the bank that owns the ATM may add its fee. NLB and OTP package prices come from the Banka Slovenije fee comparison, everything else from the providers’ price lists (links below the protection section). We re-check the data by hand every month.

Frequently asked questions

Neobank FAQ 6

Do I have to report a Revolut, N26 or bunq account to FURS?
Yes. An account you open abroad, including one at a broker such as Trade Republic or Trading 212, has to be reported to the Slovenian Financial Administration within 8 days of opening, through eDavki (form DR-Račun) or on form DR-02. Changes, such as closing the account, are reported too. Accounts at Slovenian banks need no report, as FURS gets that data itself.
Is my money safe with a neobank?
At the banks (Revolut, N26, bunq, Trade Republic) deposits are covered by their home country’s deposit guarantee, up to €100,000 per person, the same as at Slovenian banks. Wise is not a bank but an e-money institution: it keeps your money apart from its own, but there is no deposit guarantee. Trading 212 is a broker: cash and securities are covered by the Cypriot investor compensation fund up to €20,000.
How is interest from a foreign bank taxed in Slovenia?
Interest on deposits at banks in Slovenia and other EU countries is tax-free up to €1,000 a year in total. Above that, you file a return by 28 February and pay 25% on the amount over €1,000. Returns from money market funds (for example Revolut Flexible Cash Funds) are not deposit interest, so you have to report them whatever the amount.
Which card is cheapest for paying in another currency?
Trade Republic, Trading 212 and N26 charge no fee on card payments in another currency. Revolut is free on weekdays up to a monthly limit (€1,000 on Standard), with up to 1% added at weekends. Wise charges about 0.4 to 0.5% and bunq 0.5%. NLB and OTP use the card scheme’s rate.
Do neobanks pay more interest than Slovenian banks?
Often yes, but some only pay the higher rate on a paid plan. That is why the interest table on this page is ranked by what is left after a year once the plan fee is paid. Slovenian banks are compared in the savings account and deposit comparisons.
Where does the data come from?
From each provider’s price list and plans page; NLB and OTP package prices come from the Banka Slovenije fee comparison. We re-check the data by hand every month, and the date of the last check is shown next to the title. The comparison is for information only and is not financial advice.
