Your Seamless Transition to the Adriatic Coast
From the historic streets of Zagreb to the sun-drenched harbors of Split and the iconic walls of Dubrovnik, Croatia is a premier destination for those seeking a high quality of life and breathtaking scenery. In 2026, Croatia’s integration into the Schengen Area and the Eurozone makes it more accessible than ever, yet a move of 1,300+ miles from the UK still requires expert logistical care.
At Pask’s Removals, we specialize in removals to Croatia, ensuring your belongings traverse the continent safely. Whether you are relocating for a new career, a “digital nomad” lifestyle, or a peaceful retirement by the Adriatic, we handle the complexity of post-Brexit customs and long-haul transit so you can focus on your new Mediterranean chapter.

Navigating Croatian Customs in 2026
As a “third-country” national moving from the UK, your household goods are subject to customs clearance. To avoid the standard 25% Croatian VAT, you must qualify for Transfer of Residence (ToR) status.
Duty-Free Import Requirements
To import your personal property duty-free in 2026, the Croatian Customs Authority (Carinska uprava) generally requires:
-
12-Month Residency: Proof that you have lived outside the EU for at least the last 12 consecutive months (e.g., UK Council Tax bills or P60s).
-
6-Month Ownership: Proof that you have owned and used your items for at least six months prior to the move.
-
Certificate of Residence: A “Certificate of residence abroad” issued by the Croatian Embassy in the UK, or proof of your new Croatian residency (Boravište).
-
Inventory in Croatian: A detailed, valued list of all items. Our team assists you in preparing this inventory to ensure it meets local standards.
Pro Tip: In 2026, ensure you have your OIB (Osobni identifikacijski broj), your Croatian personal identification number, ready before your goods arrive at the border. This is essential for all administrative and customs processes.

Living in Croatia: 2026 Tips for Newcomers
The “OIB” and “Boravište” Your first steps should be obtaining your OIB and registering your temporary residence (Boravište) at the local police station (MUP). These are the keys to opening a bank account, setting up utilities, and receiving your household goods tax-free.
Island Logistics If you are moving to an island, be aware of ferry schedules. In 2026, many ferries are “Jadrolinija” services. We coordinate our arrivals with ferry times to ensure your goods don’t spend unnecessary time at the docks.
The “Kava” Culture Moving in Croatia is a social event. Don’t be surprised if your new neighbors stop by to say “Dobar dan.” The coffee culture is sacred here—taking an hour for a kava is the best way to integrate into your new community!
