There are three government bodies of the Republic of Slovenia that Slovenes living outside its borders can turn to for assistance and advice.

In Australia the Embassy of the Republic of Slovenia is in Canberra. Its representatives are available for contact on the telephone or electronic mail, and may be visited by appointment. The embassy staff also regularly the capital cities, where they make themselves available to Slovenian community in various well advertised locations for consular appointments.

In Sydney the Honorary Consul is Mr Anthony Tomazin. In 2014 Mrs. Nevenka Clarke was appointed Honorary Consul for Queensland and Mr. Adrian Vatovec was appointed Honorary Consul for South Australia.

The Government Office for Slovenes Abroad/Urad Vlade za Slovence v zamejstvu in po svetu, is responsible for funding the initiatives and activities of Slovenes living outside the borders of the Republic of Slovenia that maintain Slovenian identity. It became an independent service in 2004. The Office maintains contact with Slovenian minority and emigrant organisations promoting their activities and organising conferences, seminars. The Office manages public tenders financed by the Republic of Slovenia for programmes and projects in the interests of Slovenes around the world. In association with several organisations The Office developed the web portal Slovenci.si in 2008 with the aim of connecting and providing a flow of information between the homeland and Slovenes around the world.
