Due to the full-scale war in Ukraine, many of our compatriots are looking for refuge and better prospects in other European countries. One of the attractive destinations is Croatia - a member of the European Union with a beautiful climate, tourist opportunities and a dynamic economy. Ukrainian citizens wishing to reside in Croatia should first contact the Croatian consular office in Ukraine to obtain visa information and necessary documents.

For a long-term legal stay in Croatia, Ukrainians must obtain a residence permit. Let's consider the main ways of obtaining it:

1. Temporary residence permit for war victims
In connection with the military aggression of the Russian Federation, Croatia grants Ukrainians the right to temporary protection. To apply for such a residence permit, you must apply to the Migration Service within 60 days of entry. It is necessary to provide identity documents, a war victim certificate and fingerprints. The term of validity is 1 year with the possibility of extension.

2. Labor activity
One of the ways to get a permanent residence permit is to work in Croatia under a contract for at least 1 year. To apply, you must have a valid work permit from a Croatian employer, a certificate of income, a health insurance policy and a certificate of no criminal record.

3. Entrepreneurial activity
Ukrainians can open their own business in Croatia, register a company or become self-employed. In this case, the chances of obtaining a residence permit increase. You will need to prove the availability of funds for the investment and pay certain fees.

4. Training
For students of higher educational institutions, a special student residence permit is provided for a period of up to 1 year with the possibility of extension. It is necessary to have a certificate of enrollment and a health insurance policy.

5. Family reunification
Family members of Ukrainian citizens who have a permanent residence permit in Croatia may also apply for a residence permit under the family reunification procedure.

The main requirements for obtaining a residence permit in Croatia are:

Proof of purpose of residence: Applicants must provide sufficient evidence regarding the purpose of their stay in Croatia, such as a work contract, study or support from relatives or spouses, to prove that they do not intend to stay in the country illegally.

Financial guarantees: Applicants must demonstrate that they have sufficient financial resources to support themselves during the period of residence in Croatia. This may include bank statements, employment contracts or sponsorships.

Medical insurance: Ukrainian citizens must have medical insurance that covers medical expenses during their stay in Croatia.

Necessary documents: The list of documents that must be submitted to obtain a residence permit in Croatia may include: a completed application form, passport, photographs, copies of documents confirming the purpose of residence, health insurance and financial means.

Payment Requirements: Applicants must pay a consular fee for the processing of their visa application.

In general, the process of obtaining a residence permit in Croatia involves the collection of a significant package of documents, including a health insurance policy, certificates of income, real estate, absence of a criminal record, etc. You should also prepare to pay administrative fees. Taking into account the state of war in Ukraine, some requirements for our citizens may be eased.

Obtaining a residence permit will open the possibility for Ukrainians to legally stay, work or study in Croatia on a long-term basis.

In case of rejection of the visa application, the applicants have the right to file an appeal or use other legal remedies provided by Croatian legislation.

The general procedure for obtaining a residence permit in Croatia for Ukrainian citizens may take some time, so it is recommended to start the registration process in advance. Compliance with all requirements and providing sufficient documentation is the key to successfully obtaining a residence permit in Croatia.
