Overview

Aliens Act (Official Gazette, No. 133/20), in force since 1 January 2021, introduces national long-term visa (type D) into the Croatian legislation.

Ordinance on Visas (Official Gazette, No. 109/21), entering into force 1 November 2021, additionally clarifies the procedure and conditions of the issuance of long-term visas to third-country nationals in Croatian Embassies/Consulates.

The long-term visa is an approval to stay in the territory of the Republic of Croatia up to 30 days if a third-country national has been granted temporary stay for the purposes referred to in Article 57 of the Aliens Act:

• Family reunification,
• Secondary school education,
• University studies,
• Research,
• Humanitarian grounds,
• Life partnership,
• Work
• Work of a posted worker
• Stay of long-term residents in another EEA Member State,

and is required to hold a short-term visa to enter the Republic of Croatia.

Visa type D substitutes the procedure of short-term (type C) visa applications of third-country nationals who have been granted temporary stay or issued stay and work permit by the competent Police Directorate/Police Administration.

VISA TYPE D IS ISSUED:

• to third-country nationals who have been granted temporary stay or issued stay and work permit, and are required to hold a short-term visa to enter the Republic of Croatia;

• with the period of validity no longer than six months; long-term visa shall not become valid prior to the beginning of validity of the granted temporary stay or the issued stay and work permit in the Republic of Croatia;
• in a valid travel document in the form of the sticker also used for the issuance of visas type C; the letter “D” is entered into the category “Type of visa”.

The procedure of issuance of long-term visas is identical to the procedure employed until now for the issuance of short-term visas to third-country nationals who have been granted temporary stay or issued stay and work permit by the competent Police Directorate/Police Administration.

A LONG-TERM VISA APPLICATION SHALL BE CONSIDERED ADMISSIBLE IF:

6. the prescribed administrative fee has been paid (700,00 HRK / 93 EUR / 106 USD)

If the above conditions are not fulfilled, long-term visa application shall be considered inadmissible, all documents enclosed shall be returned to the applicant, and the amount of administrative fee paid shall be refunded.

WHEN APPLYING FOR A LONG-TERM VISA, THE APPLICANT IS OBLIGED TO SUBMIT:

• filled in and personally signed prescribed long-term visa (type D) application form;
