Visa & Entry

British passport holders enter Croatia visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day rolling period under Schengen rules. Croatia joined the Schengen Area on 1 January 2023. No fee, no advance application. Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure date with at least two blank pages. UK passports are stamped on entry and exit.

No supporting documents are mandatory, but border officers can ask for proof of accommodation, onward travel, and sufficient funds. The 90-day limit is shared across all 29 Schengen countries, so time in other Schengen states counts against it. ETIAS pre-travel authorization (EUR 7, valid 3 years) is expected to become mandatory in late 2026. Croatia adopted the euro on 1 January 2023, replacing the kuna.
