Roundabout sign located nearDunajská Streda Road signs in Slovakia are regulated by theMinistry of Transport and theMinistry of Interior .
Road signs in Slovakia began developing in the early 20th century, influenced by Austro-Hungarian standards. After becoming part ofCzechoslovakia in 1918, the country adopted a unified system of road signs. In the 1950s-60s, signs were updated to match international standards from theVienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals , which Czechoslovakia signed. After Slovakia became independent in 1993, it kept most of the Czechoslovak traffic sign system, while in the process modernizing it.
The signs were updated in April 2020, modernising existing signs as well as adding some new ones, such as small white arrows on theNo stopping or parking sign.[ 1] Slovakia use theTern typeface on their newest signs, which were updated in 2020.
