Slovenia ratified the UNESCO World Heritage Convention on November 5, 1992, inheriting its status from the former Yugoslavia.

It has both cultural and natural sites inscribed, including prehistoric pile dwellings, ancient beech forests, and karst caves. Common themes among its nominations include early human settlement, unique geological formations, biodiversity conservation, and traditional land-use practices. Transboundary heritage is also significant, reflecting regional cooperation.
