• The Croatian Parliament adopted amendments to the Law on Illegal Buildings, removing the deadline for submitting applications that expired in 2018.
  • The new law allows legalization of buildings constructed by June 21, 2011, with an estimated 30,000 additional structures eligible.
  • Applications are submitted digitally via the eDozvola system, requiring complete documentation and a certificate from the State Geodetic Administration.
  • Legalization is not possible for objects on maritime property, in nature parks, on forest and water land, or archaeological sites.
  • The fee for illegal construction will depend on size, location, and purpose, to be defined by a special regulation.
  • The process involves hiring authorized experts, filling a digital form, paying fees, and registering in the land registry.
