Editor's Note: We know COVID-19 is continuing to impact your travel plans. Should you travel now, be sure to familiarize yourself with the CDC's latest guidance on domestic and international travel as well as local requirements, protocols, and restrictions for both your destination upon your arrival and your home city upon your return. Be safe out there.

Travelers can now enter Croatia without needing a COVID vaccination, COVID testing, or any related quarantine issues, according to Travel + Leisure. The entry requirements currently in place are the exact requirements that existed before the pandemic. Croatia's tourism website states that the COVID entry requirements expired on April 30, 2022, and were not renewed on May 1.

Before the COVID requirements expired, visitors were required to show proof of vaccination, a negative COVID test, and proof of accommodations. Visitors were also required to fill out an online entry form as well.

Currently, Croatia is listed as a Level 3 Risk on the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's Travel Recommendations by Destination. That means the CDC recommends that you are fully vaccinated if you travel to any destination that is categorized as a Level 3.
