Formalities

PASSPORT & VISAS

From 7 April 2017, as part of the strengthening of controls at the European Union's external borders, systematic identity checks at Croatian border posts, on entry and exit, including for EU nationals, are being introduced under the reform of Article 8-2 of the Schengen Borders Code.
Croatia, a member of the European Union since July 2013, is not yet a member of the Schengen area: valid identity documents are required to enter or leave Croatian territory.
All travellers under the age of 18 must therefore be in possession of a valid passport or national identity card covering the entire duration of their stay.
