First, you must gather several documents to apply for a Croatia visa. The documents include your passport, which should be valid for at least three months after your intended stay in Croatia and contain two blank pages. Additionally, you must submit a completed visa application form, which is available online at the official Croatian website.
You are required to submit passport-sized photos as per the Schengen guidelines, proof of travel arrangements such as flight reservations, and accommodation confirmation for the duration of your stay. Furthermore, applicants must submit travel insurance documents covering medical expenses of up to €30,000 for the stay in Croatia and other Schengen countries.
Applicants must also submit sufficient funds documents, usually bank statements, proving that the applicant can financially sustain their stay. Depending on the type of visa, other documents like business invitations and hotel reservations may be required.
