Can I ask everyone, how is/are the 90 day period allowing one to be in Croatia calculated? Is it consecutive or what? I come here/go there often. Sometimes I stay for a while, and in a couple of months time I want to stay for 8 weeks. Soon I will have used the 90 days up. Is it checked? (Here I bow to MH who will think I want to cheat his hardworking compatriots in some indefinable way) (I am not, MH, don't worry. I bring a lot of money here.) How do they check/work it out? I am not employed here/there, I am only a visitor with a house. I don't want to have to go through the (no doubt) impossibly frustrating task of getting a temporary residence permit, not the least since getting health insurance on a full time basis is difficult. Can anyone help?

As of May last year (2012) so I may be out of date, your stay as a tourist/visitor goes like this...
On the day of entry, your 90 days starts. It will finish 90 days later no matter if you are in the country, out, or you come and go. You must leave and cannot re-enter at the end of that 90 day period until a further 90 days have passed whereupon you may enter and start a new 90 period... as so on. Are you a EU citizen? If so, July 2013 may change everything.

Hi - I posted this reply in 2011 and was not aware of any changes....? This is our understanding of the 90 day rule, which our local tourist office accepts and was no problem when we stayed last summer. =================================== Residence in Croatia The new Amended Regulation on the status of foreigners in the Republic of Croatia has been published in the Official Gazette No 36/2009 (Narodne Novine) on 23/03/09 and is valid as of 30/03/09. Please note that further clarification of the new Regulation should be sought at Ministry of Interior, Department for Foreigners. British citizens do not need a visa for tourist stays of up to for 3 months (90 days) in every 6 months, counted from the first day of arrival into the country. In the course of the initial 6 months British citizens can go in and out of Croatia as long as they have days left out of the 90 days (you should either de-register and register with the local police each time you leave the country/ come back, or insist on having stamps in your passport). British citizens intending to stay in Croatia for longer than 90 days must apply for temporary residence permit before the 90 days are up. from ukincroatia.fco.gov.uk/en/help-fo....ence-in-croatiaAlso - Stay of aliens Short-term stay – stay of aliens of up to 90 days, with or without visa. Aliens who are not obliged to possess a visa to enter the Republic of Croatia may stay in the Republic of Croatia for maximum 90 days within a period of 6 months, starting from the day of their first entry – Article 43(1) and (2) of the Aliens Act (Official Gazette No. 79/07 and 36/09). from www.mup.hr/main.aspx?id=1266#Short-term stay Read more: visitcroatia.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=living&thread=8613&page=1#78690#ixzz2LplgSqie
