We'll see, actually, I've never seen such a document from Slovakia... hopefully I won't be the first to invoke the treaty to demand one.

If you follow the "diary" category back through a few previous posts, you'll find something that describes the process in a bit more detail. I will be without ID for some time, it's true, but I'll also be executing a power-of-attorney document delegating my signature ability for all legal acts to someone I trust -- and then keeping that document myself, so that that person can only act in my name when I'm present.

Why not wait til you've got that covered? Oh, here I go again. I just can't imagine taking the chance of having your day-to-day life negatively affected by not having ID or a way to do business or travel.
