Croatia, as an EU member state, has specific regulations regarding work permits for EU/EEA nationals and non-EU/EEA nationals. Here is an overview of the work permit process in Croatia:

• For EU/EEA Nationals:

 No Work Permit Required: Citizens of EU/EEA countries and Switzerland generally do not need a work permit to work in Croatia. They have the right to work and reside in Croatia under the principle of free movement within the EU/EEA.

• Non-EU/EEA Nationals:
• Job Offer: Our team will help you to obtain a job offer from a Croatian employer. The employer must be registered and authorized to hire foreign workers.
• Work Permit Application submission.
• Required Documents: Prepare and submit necessary documents, including a valid passport, employment contract, proof of qualifications, proof of health insurance, proof of accommodation in Croatia, and other specific documents as required.
• Wait for Process completion: The processing time for work and residence permits can vary, so it’s essential to apply well in advance of your planned employment start date.
• Biometric Data: Depending on the requirements, you may need to provide biometric data (fingerprints, photo) as part of the application process.
• Receive Decision: Once your application is processed, you will receive a decision on your work and residence permit application. Once approved, you will receive the permits allowing you to work and reside in Croatia for the specified employer and duration.
• Intra-Company Transfers and Highly Skilled Workers:
• Croatia also has specific provisions for intra-company transfers and highly skilled workers, allowing for streamlined processes in some cases. Requirements and procedures may vary based on these specific categories.
