Hello,
Schengen is valid for Slovakia. However, they are more scrutinized than other Schengen countries. You can get precise information about the green passport from the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs: http://www.mfa.gov.tr/turk-vatandaslarinin-tabi-oldugu-vize-uygulamalari.tr.mfa
Statement there: “Slovakia: Ordinary Passport holders are subject to a visa. Diplomatic, Service and Special Passport holders are exempt from visa for 90 days during their travels to the aforementioned country. ”

hello, i will go to vienna in june i have schengen visa. I want to move to bratislava from there for 1-2 days. but slovakia is not a schengen country… do i have to get a slovakia visa?
Hello Slovakia has been a Schengen member since 2007 and has the right of free movement. You can easily pass from Vienna to Bratislava. Finding a train can be a bit of a hassle yet and it can take a long time. I suggest you choose buses instead. They are both cheaper and go faster. They are already very close to each other.
