EU/EEA nationals do not need an entry visa and may stay for up to three months, but must register temporary stay when studying longer. Third-country nationals must check whether they need a Schengen entry visa and must separately obtain temporary stay for university study. The standard route uses a Croatian diplomatic mission or consulate; specified students may also apply at the competent police authority after lawful entry. An entry visa is not a study-residence permit. Requirements depend on nationality, current lawful stay, program and mobility status, so use the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of the Interior immediately before travel.
