Dear owners of holiday houses or apartments,
Herewith we would like to remind you that it is mandatory to register yourself and all persons staying in your house or apartment through the unique national online information system eVisitor all year round.
Check-in can be made by means of any device that has Internet access. If you have not done this yet, we invite you to come in person to our office at Obala maršala Tita 23 with the ownership certificate, the OIB (personal identification number) and the ID card, and to download the eVisitor’s access data. If you can not come in person, then the access data can be taken by an assignee presenting an assignment certified by a notary. When retrieving the data, the assignee should present the ownership certificate, the OIB, the notarized assignment, and his ID (original).
In the case where the owner of the house or apartment is a company, in addition to all of the above-mentioned documents, a copy of the extract from the Commercial Court Register should be provided.
The eVisitor will automatically report to the MUP (Ministry for Internal Affairs) those persons for whom the MUP registration is required (non-EU and EEA nationals).
We remind you that according to the Tourist Tax Act (Official Gazette 52/19) for yourself and for all persons staying in the house or apartment you must register your stay within 24 hours upon arrival. The eVisitor system will also enable you to create and print a payment slip which you can use to pay the taxes for the period in which the obligation exists.
