Digital nomads in Croatia can now stay for up to three years
The sun-kissed Balkan hotspot recently updated the terms of their digital nomad visa scheme, allowing non-EU residents to stay in the country for up to three years.
This is a major extension from its original one-year limit, which was hardly enough time to experience Croatia's waterfall-packed national parks, pristine beaches, dazzling cities and numerous islands.
That's not all. The visa update now allows family reunification, meaning digital nomads can apply to bring their spouses and children abroad to the Adriatic coast. Visa holders can also apply for temporary stay extensions for up to six months, allowing way more time and flexibility for temporary residents to plan their next move.
How to apply
So, how can you get your hands on this three-year ticket?
To be eligible for Croatia's digital nomad visa, applicants must give proof of remote work. This can be via an employment contract, freelancer agreement or business registration.
They also need to show proof of accommodation and must make a minimum monthly income of at least €3,295 (£2,860.42). Applicants need valid health insurance that covers them for their entire stay in Croatia, as well as a valid passport for at least three months beyond the planned stay, and they cannot have any criminal convictions.
So, ready to take the leap abroad? Apply via the official government website.

Collection in-store will be available from Friday, August 29, and those who miss out can look for it in stores from Thursday, September 4 while stocks last. Where did Lidl get its name? Lidl was set up in Germany in 1930 when Josef Schwarz became a partner in a company called Südfrüchte Großhandlung Lidl & Co. This had been established by Anton Lidl since at least 1858 under the name & Cie, specialising in the sale of exotic fruits. Schwarz renamed the company Lidl & Schwarz KG and expanded into a food wholesaler. In 1977, under his son Dieter Schwarz, the Schwarz Group began to focus on discount markets and larger supermarkets. Dieter wasn't keen on using his own name for this, as the name Schwarz-Markt translates to 'black market'. Recommended reading: He wanted to use the name of his father's former business partner, but legal reasons prevented him from doing so. When he discovered a newspaper article about a painter and retired schoolteacher Ludwig Lidl, he bought the rights to the name from him for 1,000 German marks. From there, the Lidl name was used, and it expanded into many countries over time.

Welcome to the age of ‘geoeconomics'
A s Europe prepares to watch from the sidelines while the United States and Russia negotiate the future of Ukraine in Alaska, references to geopolitics are, once again, everywhere. The 'geo' buzz has been upon us for a while. According to almost every commentator, we live in the age of 'geoeconomics'. And yet, when real-world great power competition comes knocking, analysts struggle to make sense of it. Nowhere has this been more apparent than in reactions to the recent EU-US trade deal. Commentators have labelled it a humiliating and economically unnecessary climbdown, while berating European negotiators for their lack of strategy. The UK, which struck a deal limiting most tariffs to 10 per cent rather than the EU's 15 per cent, is seen as having achieved a better result.

Big changes for UK travellers going to Europe in 2025
There are several big changes ahead for UK travellers going to Europe in 2025. From October, UK citizens travelling to and from Europe will encounter changes at the borders, The Independent's travel correspondent Simon Calder explains. The European Union is launching its much-delayed entry-exit system (EES). By April 2026 the process should be complete, transforming the border experience at all crossing points in and out of the Schengen area (comprising the EU except Ireland, plus Iceland, Norway and Switzerland). Simon explains how travellers will go through the formalities at airports, land borders and ports in the Schengen area on both arrival and departure.
