Croatia Digital Nomad Visa

Everything Digital Nomads need to know

About Croatia

Croatia has a lot to offer, not only for holidaymakers. The country has a long coastline along the Adriatic Sea, with hundreds of islands and beautiful beaches, national parks, a rich history and culture, many historic cities and landmarks, and delicious cuisine.

Croatia is also known for its affordable cost of living, with excellent accommodation available for relatively little money, combined with fast internet speeds and a welcoming attitude to visitors. All this makes Croatia a great spot to base yourself as a digital nomad.

Residence permit or digital nomad visa – which one should you get then? Where to start?

Croatia City Destinations

Start by choosing your destination.
Think about which place could be your temporary croatian address.

Split

A Roman-era coastal city, Split is characterized by its historic downtown area, which is enclosed within the walls of Diocletian’s Palace. There is also a wonderful daily farmer’s market just outside the walls, which is perfect for picking up fresh produce and enjoying high-quality and locally-sourced food.

There is a promenade right along the seafront called the Riva which is filled with cafés, bars, and restaurants. This area is perfect for spending some time getting work done, hanging out with friends in comfortable surroundings, or just taking life slowly and watching the sunset.

There aren’t too many coworking options in Split, but there are plenty of cafés and restaurants that are amenable to digital nomads pitching up and getting some work done on their premises. Be sure to leave a good impression and don’t just sit for hours nursing one coffee.

Zagreb

The colorful Capital of Croatia, Zagreb, is one of the most popular destinations for digital nomads in the whole country. There is stunning architecture all around, and there is green space aplenty in the numerous public parks. Although Zagreb isn’t by the sea, the atmosphere is still warm and welcoming to digital nomads and prices aren’t quite as high as in some other parts of Europe.

Zagreb is, in all the best ways, a truly European city with nightlife aplenty and a real café culture spilling out onto its many old streets. Add in that there is a large, bustling digital nomad community that is here all year round and is active in many local activities. As you would expect, there are also co-working spaces aplenty, ranging from small and boutique to larger chains. Zagreb also has excellent links to pretty much everywhere in other parts of the country, and it can also be reached by plane or train from the nearest European capitals.

Dubrovnik

One of the most picturesque cities in the whole of Europe, Dubrovnik sits perched upon the shore of the Adriatic Sea, and it’s also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Sharp-eyed television viewers may recognize the formidable stone walls of the Old City from the TV series Game of Thrones, where the City doubled as King’s Landing, the seat of the King and his family.

Despite being bound to antiquity with its old town walls and ancient buildings, there is a youthful and fun side to Dubrovnik as well, which is sure to appeal to the digital nomad crowd. Bustling cafés spill out onto cobbled squares, with people perched on chairs with laptops open before them, a fine mixture of the old and the new.

Croatia Visa Options

If you are already from the EU, you will have freedom of movement throughout the European bloc anyway and can settle in Croatia for a while if you wish without having to register for a separate visa.

Tourist Visa

A tourist visa is a short-stay visa (C visa), called “kratkotrajna viza”/ viza C in Croatian. If you are from outside the EU, want to come on a tourist visa, and are content with spending 90 days out of 180 in Croatia, you will not have to do anything in advance to be allowed your visit.

Croatia Digital Nomad Visa / Temporary Residence Permit

Once your 90-day tourist visa or stay has expired, and you wish to stay and actually live in Croatia beyond the term of your short-stay visa, then you must apply for a Croatian Digital Nomad Visa. Combining the length of stay allowed by both visas, you can stay in Croatia for up to 15 months.

Unlike some digital nomad visas in other European countries, the Croatian digital nomad visa is actually more accurately termed a temporary residence permit, and it will not allow you to gain permanent residence in the country.

The Croatian temporary residence permit is granted for up to a year (possibly even less) and it cannot be extended. A new application for regulating the stay of digital nomads can be submitted 6 months after the expiry of the previously granted temporary stay of digital nomads.

The new temporary residence permit specifically refers to digital nomads and the legislation introducing it defined digital nomads as “[A] digital nomad is a third-country national who is employed or performs work through communication technology for a company or his own company that is not registered in the Republic of Croatia and does not perform work or provide services to employers in the Republic of Croatia.”

This means that no digital nomads who apply for the new temporary residence permit can be working for a Croatian company during their stay.

Croatia Visa Options

If you're a third-country national, and you need a visa to enter Croatia, then you should apply for this permit abroad at a Croatian embassy or consulate in your home country.

You can also submit your application and required documents online. It will be forwarded to the competent local police station depending on where you plan to stay in the Republic of Croatia.

Required Documents

Here is a more detailed list of the documents required to obtain a Digital Nomad Visa:

  • Application Form – You must fill out Form 1a, which is available in Croatian or English language. You can either submit the form online or in person.
  • Valid Travel Document – You must provide a copy of your valid travel document, such as a valid passport. The validity of your travel document must be at least 3 months longer than the period of your intended stay in Croatia.
  • Health Insurance – You must provide proof of health insurance for the entire period of your stay in Croatia. Your insurance must cover the territory of the Republic of Croatia and can be either travel insurance or private health insurance.
  • Proof of Purpose – You must provide evidence of your purpose for staying in Croatia. This can be in the form of a contract of employment or service contract with a foreign employer, a signed official letter, or proof of your own company that is not registered in Croatia. You must also provide a statement from your employer or a third-country national as proof that you will be working remotely in Croatia.
  • Means of Subsistence – You must provide proof that you have sufficient funds to support yourself (and your close family members, if they join you) during your stay in Croatia. This can be in the form of a bank statement showing that you have the total amount required for the year, a bank statement, or payslips showing proof of regular monthly income to the required amount. A third-country national who is a digital nomad is required to have the amount corresponding to at least 2.5 average monthly net salary paid for the previous year.
  • Criminal Record – You must provide legalized documents that you have not been convicted of any criminal offences in your home country or any country where you have resided for more than one year immediately before arriving in Croatia (e.g. federal background check).
  • Address in Croatia – You must provide an address in Croatia where you will be staying. You can provide a temporary address as the address of your intended stay (e.g., a hostel or hotel if you have a reservation).

Note 1: You can also prepare the relevant photo, which will later be used in making the residence permit. Make sure, it will be a Croatian-sized passport photo!

Note 2: If there are close family members joining you, you will also have to provide their required documents like extract from the marriage certificate or extract from the birth certificates for children. Also read the recommendations for informal life partner (e.g. joint rental agreements).

Health Insurance

“Obavezno zdravstveno osiguranje” – that's the Croatian name for the compulsory health insurance you should get. You must have proof of health insurance or travel insurance that will cover you for the duration of your stay. This is pretty standard and just ensures that you are never a burden on the Croatian State if you fall ill or have an accident.
