      You need a grand-grandparent (or more recent) born in Slovakia. My biological great grandmother was born in a small town in the eastern half of what is now Slovakia, and immigrated to the US in the late 1920s. I was adopted as an infant though, so my legal family has no such connections, and while I could try to make my case, it would be both circumstantial and rather technical unless I could get help from my birth father, which is, shall we say, unlikely.

        Interesting. My grandmother was.

        I’ve wondered what my options to get to the EU are if I really wanted. That…is interesting.

        Edit: do you have a source by any chance? So far I only see rules allowing if parents were Slovakian citizens.
