Croatia To Join US Visa Waiver Program

The Croatian Foreign Ministry has asked civil servants and people in the banking and business sectors to apply for US visas and they will almost certainly be approved which will help the rejection rate to drop below 3% by the end of this month, which is the last requirement Croatia must meet to be part of the US visa waiver program.

Croatia was a step away from meeting that requirement before the coronavirus pandemic stopped travel and reduced the number of visa applications to a minimum. The ministry’s call is a way to make up for that.

If Croatia meets this last requirement then US visas will be waived next year.

But if it misses this deadline this month, it will enter a new fiscal year and the counting of visa rejections will begin again.

Croatia is now just a step away from achieving the goal it has been waiting for since declaring independence,

In order to achieve that goal which now seems very likely, it was necessary to have good political relations and meet technical standards, including technical equipment, functioning border services, security data processing & sharing, and passports which meet the highest standard

01:14 - US VISA WAIVER PROGRAM

US Visa Waiver Program enables eligible citizens of designated countries to travel to the United States for tourism or business for stays of 90 days or less without first obtaining a visa.

Aside from applying for an Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA), eligible citizens also need an e-Passport to enter the US.

Currently, 39 countries are part of the visa waiver program and in return, those 39 countries must permit U.S. citizens and nationals to travel to their countries for a similar length of time without a visa for business or tourism purposes.

01:44 - Citizens who can enter The US without A tourist visa

Andorra, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brunei, Chile, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, San Marino, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom

02:12 - Croatia's Relationship with the Schengen Zone

Despite being part of the European Union, Croatia is still not part of the Schengen Zone. Croatia officially applied to join on 1st July 2015 but it is still not yet a member of the Zone

This is useful if you’re travelling in Europe and need to be careful with the Schengen days you use up.

If you come to Croatia using your Schengen Visa, you’ll still be in Europe but won’t use up any “Schengen visa” days.

02: 38 - British Nationals Entering Croatia after Brexit

British citizens will not need a visa to visit Croatia after the Brexit transition officially ends. However, a new visa waiver scheme – ETIAS – is set to be launched in 2022.

British travellers will be required to obtain this visa waiver authorisation prior to travel to Croatia and anywhere else in the EU states.

Each approval will last for three years.
