Road signs in Slovakia

Road signs in Slovakia are regulated by the Ministry of Transport and the Ministry of Interior.
Road signs in Slovakia began developing in the early 20th century, influenced by Austro-Hungarian standards. After becoming part of Czechoslovakia in 1918, the country adopted a unified system of road signs. In the 1950s-60s, signs were updated to match international standards from the Vienna 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 the No stopping or parking sign.[1] Slovakia use the Tern typeface on their newest signs, which were updated in 2020.
