Current Travel Situation
Georgia to Croatia: What You Need to Know
Croatia joined the Schengen Area on 1 January 2023, and Georgia has held visa-free access to the Schengen zone since 2017. Croatian entry is therefore straightforward for Georgian travellers presenting a valid passport.
Georgia applied for EU membership in 2022 and received candidate status in 2023, making the relationship with EU members like Croatia increasingly close. Croatia is a popular tourist destination with Adriatic coastline, and Georgian visitors can enjoy up to 90 days there.
The ETIAS pre-travel authorisation system for Schengen countries is anticipated in the near future. Once introduced, Georgian travellers will need to obtain ETIAS online before travel, though it will not be a visa.
Practical Tips
Travel insurance is recommended for any Schengen visit. Croatia uses the Euro since 2023. Direct flights from Tbilisi to Zagreb are limited, so most travellers connect via Istanbul or Vienna. The 90-day Schengen limit applies across all member states combined.
