Four steps to obtaining Croatian citizenship

Step-by-step procedure for obtaining citizenship, accompanied by Laweius lawyers
01
Determination of grounds and analysis of documents
Lawyers help you choose the appropriate grounds for citizenship (by origin, marriage, naturalization). We analyze your family history, search for archival documents, and advise you on legal issues.
02
Collection and preparation of the dossier
A complete set of documents is compiled, including birth and marriage certificates and certificates of no criminal record. All foreign documents are apostilled and translated into Croatian. A biography in Croatian is also compiled and the necessary forms are filled out.
03
Personal submission of the application
The applicant submits the documents in person at the Croatian consulate or embassy (or at the local police department if they live in Croatia). Administrative fees are paid, and lawyers coordinate the submission process.
04
Obtaining citizenship and documents
After the application has been reviewed by the Croatian Ministry of the Interior, the applicant receives a decision on admission to citizenship and documents such as a birth certificate and passport. The entire process is supervised by lawyers until the final documents are received.

Laweius clients` reviews

Working with Laweius lawyers, I obtained Croatian citizenship by descent. Thanks to the professionalism of the team, we successfully confirmed my Croatian roots, collected the necessary documents, and went through the entire process without any unnecessary difficulties. The whole process was quick and organized, and I am very grateful for the help and support.

I have always been interested in the possibility of obtaining citizenship in Europe, and with the help of Laweius, I obtained Croatian citizenship through marriage. The lawyers developed an individual action plan for me, prepared all the documents, and accompanied the process from start to finish. Thank you very much for your attention to detail, accuracy, and impeccable results.
Vikki
I turned to Laweius to obtain Croatian citizenship through naturalization after living here for many years and still not fully understanding how to proceed. And after just a few months, I became a full citizen of the country. The lawyers monitored every stage of the process, providing complete information and reliability at every step. I really appreciate their professionalism and attention to every detail.
