Travel insurance for Croatia
Short-trip cover for visits to Croatia: emergency medical, trip-cancellation, luggage, the usual travel-insurance stack. Designed for weeks-not-years stays.
Croatia was among the first EU countries to launch a digital nomad permit, and it pairs that with a rare perk: nomad income is not taxed in Croatia. Add Schengen and euro convenience, a safe low-risk environment, English-speaking private clinics, and Adriatic living. The permit runs up to 18 months but isn't directly renewable, and the main hazards are earthquakes and coastal scrapes.
