Masks Required Indoors and Public Spaces Where Social Distancing Not Possible
As of December 5, non-wearing or improper wearing of masks where they are mandatory will be punished with a 500 HRK fine (66 EUR).
Masks must be worn indoors and are mandatory in open public places where there is increased risk of virus transmission — where it is not possible to maintain a meter and a half distance. These circumstances include waiting in lines, riding in elevators and at public transport stops. More information here (in Croatian).
