Professional Removals to and from Croatia Regal Moving & Storage

Planning a move from the UK to Croatia? Here are some key things to know to ensure a smooth relocation. UK citizens can enter Croatia without a visa for up to 90 days, but if you’re planning a longer stay, you’ll need to apply for a temporary residence permit through the Croatian Ministry of the Interior. Reasons for long-term stay typically include work, study, or family reunification.

To get settled, you’ll need to register your address, obtain an OIB (Personal Identification Number), and open a Croatian bank account. Access to healthcare is available through the state system for residents, but until you’re fully registered, private or travel insurance is recommended.

Many older properties, particularly in historic towns like Dubrovnik, Split, or Rovinj, may have limited access for large vehicles due to narrow streets or pedestrian zones. Our team will plan the delivery carefully, using smaller vehicles or special equipment where needed to ensure your belongings arrive safely and on time.

Bringing a UK-registered vehicle? If you’re planning to use it long-term in Croatia, it must be registered locally. This involves paying customs duties and VAT, passing a technical inspection, and ensuring the vehicle meets Croatian standards. We can assist with the logistics and required paperwork to make this process as straightforward as possible.
