📅 Updated November 2026 · ⏱️ 4 min read · 🌍 Worldwide delivery
✦ Quick Answer

Choose Slovakia in the country list, and +421 is added for you. Then type the Slovak number without the 0 it starts with, which leaves 9 digits, so Bratislava 02 1234 5678 is entered as 212345678. A fax of up to 3 pages costs $4.99, and each extra page is $0.99.

Entering a Slovak Fax Number Correctly

Inside Slovakia, people dial a 0 before the area code, and that 0 is how numbers are usually printed. From the United States you leave the 0 out. The Slovak regulator's numbering plan sets the national number at a fixed length of 9 digits, which makes it easy to check your typing: after removing the 0, you should have exactly 9 digits.

Bratislava has the one-digit area code 2, followed by 8 digits. Other cities use two-digit codes followed by 7 digits. These codes come from the regulator's numbering decree:

CityWritten in SlovakiaTyped in our box
Bratislava02 1234 5678212345678
Košice055 123 4567551234567
Žilina041 123 4567411234567
Banská Bystrica048 123 4567481234567

Other area codes in the same decree include Trnava 33, Nitra 37 and Prešov 51, and they work the same way. Numbers starting with 9 after the 0 is removed are mobile numbers, which normally cannot receive a fax.

How much it costs

Sending up to 3 pages to Slovakia costs $4.99. From the fourth page on, each page adds $0.99, and the full price appears on the screen before you pay.

Here is how that works for a 5-page document: $4.99 for the first 3 pages plus $0.99 for page 4 and $0.99 for page 5, which comes to $6.97. A 10-page document comes to $11.92.

There is no sign-up and no monthly charge, so a single fax is a single payment.

The steps

1
Upload your pages

Add a PDF, a Word file or a photo of each page. You can add up to 10 files, up to 100MB in total, and they are sent as one fax.

2
Choose Slovakia

Select Slovakia in the country list. The code +421 then appears next to the number box.

3
Leave out the first 0

Type the number without the 0 it starts with. Do not type 421, 00 or 011, because the country code is already added.

4
Enter your email and pay $4.99

The price is $4.99 for up to 3 pages and $0.99 for each extra page. The total is shown before you pay.

5
Wait for the confirmation email

Delivery usually takes a few minutes; some international routes can take up to about 30 minutes. If the fax fails, you are refunded automatically.

Who sends faxes to Slovakia? People in the United States fax Slovakia for many ordinary reasons, for example to reach an embassy or consulate, a university office, a bank, or a business partner who asked for a signed page by fax.

Cover page tips

Your cover page can be very simple. Please write who the fax is for, who it is from, how the recipient in Slovakia can contact you, how many pages follow, and any reference number you were given. Nothing else is added to your pages, so the office sees exactly what you upload.

If the fax fails

Sometimes a fax to Slovakia cannot be completed because the line is busy, the receiving machine is out of paper, or the number is not a fax line. Offices are most likely to have their machine ready during working hours. Slovakia is usually six hours ahead of US Eastern Time, so a fax sent at 10 in the morning in New York arrives at about 4 in the afternoon in Bratislava.

In every one of these cases the payment is refunded automatically. Please confirm the number with the recipient, wait a little, and send the fax again during their office hours.

A reply by fax

When you expect a fax back from Slovakia, you can use GetAFax.com. For $5 you get a private US fax number for 24 hours, it accepts up to 30 pages, and every fax that arrives is emailed to you as a PDF.
