BUYING THE PROPERTY IN CROATIA
With our assistance, this process is straightforward, and
given our expertise and exceptional customer service, you
can simply choose your ideal property, and we will do the
rest.
There are two different ways under which you can become a
property owner in Croatia. You may invest as an Individual,
or alternatively, we will set up a Company on your
behalf.
INDIVIDUAL OWNERSHIP:
To acquire a property in Croatia as an individual, you will need to obtain authorization from Croatian Ministry of Justice. This procedure is rather a matter of formality, providing you have a clear or no history with Croatian authorities.
It may take over 6 months for completion of all paperwork, but you can complete the purchase meanwhile. Under current Croatian legislation, mortgage facility is not available for foreign nationals, if purchasing property as individuals.
COMPANY OWNERSHIP:
There are numerous benefits, if you decide to purchase as
a company owner. This again is a very straightforward procedure.
The company can then purchase the property immediately, without
having to obtain permission from the Ministry of Justice. You
can also benefit from VAT deductions or mortgage facility,
which as a company owner in Croatia will be available to you.
INCORPORATION
Our legal team will set up on your behalf, a Croatian Limited Liability Corporation. You will nominate the shareholders and the management (i.e. yourself). The cost to set up a LLC in Croatia is app. 4.500 EUR (VAT and starting capital included). This cost varies according to exchange rate of HRK to EUR. Most of this amount remains at your disposal as a company account balance, which can be used at will. The average duration of the incorporation procedure is two weeks (ten working days).
