Summary/Abstract: The goal of the contribution is to familiarize the reader with the quantitative and qualitative developments in the field of migration in the Slovak Republic that took place from its incorporation into the European Union back in 2004. The text of the present paper is based on research outcomes of the project ‘Migration in the Slovak Republic After its Accession to the EU (2004–2008) – An Analysis of Migration Trends and Attitudes of the Public to the Migration Issues and Integration of Foreigners’ carried out by the International Organization for Migration in the Slovak Republic. However, these findings were updated by data related to 2009, thanks to which a somehow wider view of the development trajectories, fundamental attributes and key issues in the area of migration since Slovakia’s accession to the Union was gained.
