Pridržek k prilogi I:
Oddelek d: “V Sloveniji se priznavajo nacionalna vozniška dovoljenja, izdana v državah članicah EU. Druga nacionalna vozniška dovoljenja se priznavajo le, če so v skladu z ženevsko konvencijo o cestnem prometu iz leta 1949 in dunajsko konvencijo o cestnem prometu iz leta 1968.

Opombe k prilogi II:
Oddelek a: "Slovenija kot članica schengenskega območja ravna v skladu s skupno vizumsko politiko EU. Uredba Sveta (ES) št. 539/2001 z dne 15. marca 2001, s spremembami, navaja države, katerih državljani potrebujejo vizum. Slovenija ohranja pravico izdajanja vizumov za enkratni vstop, za večkratni vstop pa jih podeljuje glede na posamezni primer na podlagi vloge. Obiskovalci, ki ostanejo v Sloveniji dlje kakor tri mesece, se ne štejejo za turiste. Takse in postopek za izdajanje vizumov so določeni z Uredbo (ES) št. 810/2009 Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta z dne 13. julija 2009 o vizumskem zakoniku Skupnosti (Vizumski zakonik)."
Oddelek c: "Slovenija ohranja pravico zahtevati vse dokumente, potrebne za ugotavljanje, ali je potnikov vstop skladen z zakonodajo, ki se uporablja na tem področju, in lahko poleg veljavne povratne vozovnice zahteva tudi jamstvo za vrnitev."
Oddelek d: "Slovenija ohranja pravico pregledati vse potnike in prtljago, tudi v tranzitu."
