Slovakia has passed an amendment to the Audiovisual Fund Act requiring international streaming platforms, including Netflix, Disney+, and Amazon Prime Video, to fund domestic content creation.

Platforms may meet these requirements by making direct investments in local productions, acquiring licenses for Slovak-language works, or funding Slovak-language versions of foreign content. The legislation imposes specific limits on these contributions: language-related adjustments are capped at 10% of total direct investments, while versions using generative artificial intelligence for voiceovers are restricted to a 5% limit. The law does not mandate subscription price increases, leaving consumer pricing to the discretion of the companies.
