Answers to your
most common questions

All of this sounds great, but I have never been to Croatia and don’t speak Croatian. How do I assess that your services are legit?

That’s a very fair question. Trust is hard to build from a distance, which is why we rely on more than promises. Our CEO prof. dr. Šime Jozipović is an internationally well-established legal scholar and expert on taxation and business law. He holds numerous international awards, worked and studied at Harvard University and got on multiple occasions direct funding from the European Commission for his academic work. Our team furthermore includes numerous internationally recognized experts in law, finance, and taxation, with credentials you can verify on Google, LinkedIn, and in the Croatian international/business community.

And the easiest way to judge for yourself? Let’s set up a quick video call. Most clients know within minutes that we know what we are talking about and working in their best interest.

Lets talk!

What makes your service different from other agencies?

Unlike most agencies that simply forward your documents and hope for the best, we take full ownership of your relocation from start to finish. Our team is made up of internationally recognized experts who are native Croatian citizens but have lived and worked abroad. This unique combination means we understand both the challenges of relocating and the lifestyle you want, while possessing the precise local expertise in law, taxation, business, and real estate needed to make your move seamless.

We don’t just guide you — we handle every step, from visas and taxes to housing and interactions with authorities. The result is a smooth, worry-free relocation that lets you focus on enjoying your new life in Croatia while we manage all the complexities behind the scenes.

Lets talk!

Can’t I just apply on my own or use a low-budget service provider?

You can try to navigate the process on your own, but this approach comes with significant risks: high rejection rates, delays, and errors that can be difficult to correct. Budget services that simply forward your paperwork often create more stress than they save, because they don’t provide guidance, verification, or hands-on support.

Our service is different. We take full responsibility for your application, handling every step with precision, local expertise, and international perspective. This ensures your paperwork, visas, and compliance are done right the first time, giving you peace of mind and a smooth relocation.

For those who are extremely cost-sensitive, we can connect you with our expert immigration lawyers on an hourly basis. While this is less comprehensive than our full service, it still gives you professional guidance that budget providers cannot match.

Lets talk!

You sound like a premium service. How much is this going to cost me?

Yes, we are a premium service and charge more than companies that simply forward your paperwork and hope for the best. But that’s why we don’t have to cut corners and can get top talent on your case that protects your time and peace of mind.

Costs depend on your situation (country of origin, family setup, legal basis for relocation). To keep everything transparent, we offer a free initial consultation. After that, you’ll receive a clear, no-obligation quote. Even if you don’t move forward with us, our experts will point you in the right direction and you will have a better understanding about the VISA process in Croatia and the EU.

Are you sure you can help? My case is special — I’m a crypto investor / beneficiary of an international holding company / recieve income from multiple jurisdictions / living off a trust / or have a complex family situation.

Yes!
All of these cases and many more we have solved in practice:
We helped crypto-investor to get residency and reach legal 0% tax obligations in Croatia.
We participated in structuring Croatian subsidiaries within international holding companies of clients. Again, tax neutral and fully in line with EU law.
We helped transfer assets and shares into trusts and manage local operations.
And, of course we helped numerous families to move to Croatia, even in very complex situations (different nationalities, children from different parents etc.)
If you think your case is too complex, just take advantage of our free initial consultation, where we can evaluate your case, and provide clear directions to solve it.
Lets get in touch!

Which type of visa do I need to move to Croatia?

That depends on your profile. Croatia offers several routes: employment permits for those hired locally, digital nomad permits for remote workers with foreign income, family reunification for spouses and children, and business-based residence for entrepreneurs who establish a real operation here.

For example, a remote worker with US clients usually qualifies as a digital nomad, while someone planning to open a company would instead apply under the business route.

Because the right permit depends on your nationality, income source, and family situation, we offer a free initial consultation. In that call, we review your case and tell you exactly which visa applies, what documents you’ll need, and how the process works.

Lets talk.

Do you handle family visas as well?

Yes. Whether it’s your spouse or children, we take care of all the paperwork and make sure your whole family can move together smoothly.

Do you also help with acquiring citizenship in Croatia?

Yes. We support clients who qualify by descent, marriage, long-term legal residence, or exceptional humanitarian grounds. We manage the entire process: eligibility assessment, document collection and translation, application preparation, and representation with authorities, so you don’t have to navigate it yourself.
You can start with a free eligibility review: we’ll confirm your route, map the exact steps and likely requirements, and provide a clear roadmap and a no-obligation quote.

How long does the VISA process take?

The timeframe is never identical for two clients. Your nationality, income structure, and family situation all influence how the application is reviewed. On top of that, public offices in Croatia can sometimes be delayed by seasonal backlogs, holidays, or administrative errors. That’s why it would be misleading, and frankly irresponsible, to give you a fixed number without first understanding your case in detail.
What we do is remove every variable we can control: your paperwork is prepared to the highest standard, your residence secured without delay, and every interaction with the authorities handled directly by our experts. That’s why our clients consistently get approved faster and with fewer obstacles than if they tried on their own or through generic providers.
Because we need to understand your specific situation to give you a clear roadmap, it is our policy to provide you with a free initial consultation, so that you get clarity without any obligations.
Lets talk!

How much of the process do I need to do myself, and what if I’m not sure which documents I need?

That depends on the level of service you choose. Our VIP clients, typically ultra–high-net-worth individuals with complex international structures, rarely need to be involved at all. We work directly with their legal or tax teams abroad, coordinate everything with our Croatian experts, and manage the process from start to finish.
For most clients, we provide a comprehensive service that keeps your involvement minimal. Any documents needed from your home country can usually be sent digitally, and we guide you step by step to ensure everything meets Croatian requirements. You stay informed without having to travel or navigate bureaucracy yourself.
This is exactly why we start with a free consultation, to understand your situation and recommend the service level that best fits your needs.

Lets talk!

Can you handle everything remotely, or do I need to visit in person?

In most cases, we can manage the entire process remotely. Our team can prepare paperwork, communicate with authorities, and even secure your residence address before you arrive.

That said, some steps do require input that only you can provide — for example, confirming your intended residence or signing certain official documents. Even these are usually handled efficiently with digital submissions, courier services, or a brief in-person appointment if absolutely necessary.

The result is that you can complete the bulk of the relocation from anywhere in the world, and your arrival in Croatia is smooth, organized, and stress-free.

We will give you more insights during your free initial consultation.

Lets talk!

What happens if my visa application is rejected?

Our process is designed to prevent this. First we have an initial consultation, analyse which VISA(s) you could get and if there are reasons from preventing you to aquire them. If there are already reasons visible at this stage, you get clarity immediately without having to invest time or money into an application.

If in the first step we assess together with you that it makes sense to proceed, we go into the paperwork gathering phase. We inform you what we need, what parts we will take care locally from Croatia and what parts we will need you to provide. As soon as we have all the paperwork, we do our own review of it and check if there are any potential reasons for rejection, even before the application is filed. If there are reasons, we work with you to resolve the situation, either by switching to a different type of VISA or where possible giving you a clear plan how the issue could be resolved.

Because we do this already before the application is filed, you don’t waste months waiting for a decision, and have the piece of mind that with us your approval rate is 90% higher than applying by yourself!

Do you guarantee visa approval?

We cannot guarantee the decision of public authorities.

But here is our guarantee if we take you on as a client: if you provide us with complete and honest information and your application is rejected, we will not leave you on your own.

We will guide you through the entire appeal process at no additional cost, handling every step with precision and care.

Our focus is on making sure everything is done correctly and efficiently, giving you the strongest possible chance of approval.
