Croatia charges separate national fees for the long-stay visa (visa D) issued by its embassies/consulates and for the temporary-stay decision and biometric residence permit handled inside Croatia by police administrations. The amounts below are the official figures published by MVEP (consular/visa fees) and MUP (in-country administrative fees).

Fees are normally paid by payment slip at the police station, or by internet banking to the stated IBAN, when applying in Croatia; consular fees are paid at the mission handling your visa. Certain categories are exempt from the visa D fee.
