COVID-19 News in Past 48 Hours
- New isolation rules are going into effect, and some testing rules are changing. For patients with mild or moderate symptoms, isolation has been shortened from 14 days to 10 days from the onset of the disease. But this only applies if the person is asymptomatic and without fever for at least 24 hours. Of course, that applies only if they have not taken any medication to lower their temperature. Students in dormitories will be tested according the same criteria as medical staff. Also, people who have a written confirmation, stating that they recovered from COVID-19 within the past three months, will not have to go into self-isolation even if they have been in contact with an infected person.
- Several Croatia counties have implemented safety measures in an attempt to control the transmission of COVID-19. Those include reducing the number of participants at weddings, funerals, wakes, and other private and public events. A full summary of county measures can be found here.

COVID-19 PCR Test or Self-Isolation Required for Third-Country Nationals
This applies to third-country national passengers entering Croatia for permitted tourism or other business reasons or who have other economic interests, as well as people traveling for educational purposes.
These passengers may enter Croatia without the obligation of self-isolation upon presentation of a negative nasal and pharynx swab test for COVID-19, not older than 48 hours (starting from the time of taking the swab until arrival at the border crossing), or with the obligation of 14 days quarantine/self-isolation if they do not have a negative PCR test.
If third-country nationals have a test older than 48 hours upon entering Croatia, they will be allowed to enter Croatia. However, they will be required to self-isolate and test again in Croatia at their own expense. The above also applies to passengers and crew members on yachts. People who do not present a negative PCR test result are subject to a mandatory 14-day quarantine/self-isolation measure.
People who have a negative PCR test, and are on the self-isolation list, whether they’ve been on the list for seven days or have re-tested because they had a test older than 48 hours when entering Croatia, are to be removed from the self-isolation list.
