Great Britain will face Slovakia away from home in a qualifying tie for next year's new Fed Cup Finals.
Anne Keothavong's team will play the five-match tie, for a place in the 12-team Finals, on 7-8 February.
This year's finalists Australia and France, hosts Hungary and wildcards the Czech Republic have already qualified for April's Finals in Budapest.
The new format means Great Britain, for the first time since 1993, will begin a year with a chance to win the trophy.
Previously, only the eight teams in the competition's top tier could lift the trophy.
