Slovakia is set to receive €6 408.5 million, solely in grants, to implement its national recovery and resilience plan (NRRP), representing 6.8 % of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019. That grant allocation includes the revised Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) grant allocation (€6 005.8 million), REPowerEU grants (€366.4 million), and a transfer of the country's remaining share from the Brexit Adjustment Reserve (€36.3 million). On 8 May 2025, the European Commission adopted an implementing decision reducing Slovakia's RRF allocation by €1.23 million due to a conflict of interest. This amount was deducted from the fifth payment of €492 million received on 10 July 2025. On 13 November 2025, the Council approved Slovakia's latest (fourth) revision of the NRRP. Slovakia's plan comprises reforms and investment to help the Slovak economy recover, while advancing the green and digital transitions and addressing structural weaknesses. In the 2025 country report, the Commission found that Slovakia's NRRP is progressing but requires increased efforts for timely completion. So far, Slovakia has received €3 963.8 million (61.9 % of the total allocation), covering pre-financing (including REPowerEU pre-financing) and five grant payments. Slovakia's absorption of RRF resources sits above the EU average of 56.5 %. The European Parliament continues to ensure transparency and accountability through interinstitutional dialogues on RRF implementation, and scrutiny of the Commission's work. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. Fifth edition. The previous editions were drafted by Magdalena Sapała and Božena Destin Bobková. The 'NGEU delivery' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle of the plans. Source : © European Union, 2025 - EP
