Buying and owning a scooter

[marcelius]

Hello,

I Will start studying in Croatia this fall. I got my OIB number and a temporary paper for my lng term visa, my ID card will arrive in 2 weeks. I tried buying a scooter with my temporary paper, but the shop owner said I problaby couldn't buy One with the paper since it doesnt have 1. An adress, 2. My visa period. He suggested I wait two weeks for my card og buy it trough a croatian friend.

I reallt dont wanna wait two weeks, and then another two weeks to get plates etc. Should I to down to the Police Station and ask then how I should proceed and if the paper is sufficient?

Do not buy it through a Croatian friend. To easy to get screwed! You do know public transport is very good in most cities? Just wait!

Ask them if you can have temporary plates for a month. I did that with my car years ago while i waited for my visa to be approved
