HOW TO MOVE TO CROATIA?
Relocation to Croatia. A residence permit is the first step towards immigration to Croatia. You will be given an annual residence permit, which must be renewed in a timely manner. To do this, at least 60 days before the expiration of the residence permit, you need to submit an application to the police department. To move to Croatia you need to prepare the following package of documents:
confirmation of funds sufficient to live in Croatia,
a document confirming your place of residence (certificate of ownership of real estate, real estate purchase and sale agreement, real estate rental agreement),
medical insurance,
confirmation of the reasons for staying in the country,
no ban on residence in Croatia.
The grounds for immigration to Croatia are employment, own business in Croatia, family reunification, training, and scientific activities.
The next stage of the move is obtaining permanent resident status. It is issued to persons who have legally resided in the country for 5 years. You can be absent for no more than 10 months during this period or 6 months at a time. The requirements for candidates for permanent residence are as follows:
availability of sufficient funds to live in the country,
proof of residence,
medical insurance,
knowledge of the Croatian language,
knowledge of culture and principles of social order,
the candidate's trustworthiness.
Having lived in the republic for more than 5 years and having permanent residence, you can apply for citizenship. A prospective Croatian citizen must be over 18 years of age and be proficient in spoken and written Croatian.
