Digital Nomad Visa

The Croatia Digital Nomad Visa allows remote workers to legally reside in Croatia for up to one year (renewable). Applicants must prove they are employed by a company outside Croatia or are self-employed, with income sources unrelated to Croatia. This visa aims to attract global digital nomads to enjoy living and working in Croatia. Visa holders cannot work for local Croatian companies during their stay.

• Must be at least 18 years old and hold a valid passport.
• Must be employed by a foreign company or work as a freelancer remotely.
• Income must meet a certain threshold (specific standards subject to official updates).
• Must provide a criminal record certificate and health insurance.

1. Prepare required documents and translate them into Croatian or English.
2. Submit the application to the Croatian embassy or consulate in your country of residence.
3. Wait for approval; an interview or additional documents may be required.
4. After approval, collect the visa and register with the local police station upon arrival in Croatia.

• Research Croatian tax requirements in advance to ensure income sources are legal.
• Prepare sufficient financial proof to increase approval chances.
• Ensure all documents are accurately translated when applying.
• The visa can be renewed, but apply well before expiration.
