Passport and Visa
For EU citizens:
Being an EU citizen means that you have the right to work, study or live in Croatia without having a residence permit. You'll need a valid national identity card or passport when entering Croatia from another Schengen EU country. A driving licence doesn't qualify as a travel document and we recommend that you bring your passport in case you will need to prove your identity. More information about travelling within the EU can be found at the European commission's website.
For UK residents:
Holders of British Passports/Travel Documents do not need a visa to travel to Croatia for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. Your passport should be valid for the proposed duration of your stay; you need at least 90 days additional period of validity on your passport beyond this. For more information please check the FTA website.
For US residents:
A valid passport entitles United States citizens to a three-month stay in Croatia. For more information, please visit the website of the US Embassy.
Tourist visas to Sweden for other countries:
If you are visiting Croatia as a tourist and are a citizen of a non-EU country, you may need a visa. A visa is a permit to travel to and stay in a country for a limited period.
