كرواتيا: ما يجب معرفته قبل السفر

الأهم

  • Croatia uses the euro and is in Schengen (since 2023); non-EU visitors are registered in the EES.
  • Walking in swimwear or bare-chested in Split, Hvar, Dubrovnik, Makarska and other towns can be fined heavily.
  • Accommodation registers you with the police (eVisitor) and adds a small tourist tax.
  • Euronet ATMs crowd tourist areas; use bank ATMs and refuse conversion.

الدخول والتأشيرات

Croatia is in the Schengen area. Non-EU visitors are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES) on first entry: fingerprints and a facial photo, no passport stamps. Visa-free visitors may stay 90 days in any 180 across all Schengen states. ETIAS is not operating yet: its launch is now expected in 2027, so ignore sites selling "ETIAS" approvals.

صلاحية جواز السفر: Non-EU passports: valid at least 3 months after you leave the Schengen area and issued within the last 10 years.

قد يُطلب منك عند الحدود

  • EES registration at the first Schengen border: fingerprints and face photo (children under 12 give no fingerprints). Allow extra time at passport control.
  • Border guards may ask for a return ticket, accommodation proof, travel insurance and funds for your stay.
  • Your 90/180 days are counted across all Schengen states together; use the EU short-stay calculator to check.
  • Your accommodation must register you within 24 hours (eVisitor); if staying privately, ask your host.

الجمارك

  • From outside the EU: 200 cigarettes, 1 L spirits or 2 L fortified wine, 4 L wine, 16 L beer; other goods up to EUR 430 by air/sea (EUR 300 by land).
  • Personal imports of meat, milk and dairy products from non-EU countries are banned (small exceptions for infant food and medical needs).
  • Declare cash of EUR 10,000 or more (or equivalent) when entering or leaving the EU.
  • Prescription medicines: carry the prescription; narcotic or psychotropic medicines need a Schengen certificate (Article 75) or a doctor's letter.
