Croatia

Visit Dubrovnik's walls, Plitvice Lakes, and Dalmatian coast. Croatia joined Schengen 2023 - EU/EEA citizens enter freely. Standard Schengen visa now applies allowing 90 days across all member states.

Australian passport holders can enter Croatia and the Schengen Area visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period for tourism, business, or family visits. Your passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from the Schengen zone and must have been issued within the last 10 years. Carry proof of return travel, accommodation arrangements, travel insurance with minimum €30,000 medical coverage, and evidence of sufficient funds (approximately €60 per day). Important: the 90-day limit applies to the ENTIRE Schengen Area cumulatively — time spent in any Schengen country counts toward the total. No arrival card is required.
