Croatian Citizenship?

To get Croatian Citizenship:

- you need to have a one year temporarily visa and to extend this for five years (without interruption);

- to get this one year visa you should or been married to a Croatian, or have a working permit or be a student or joining in a humanitarian organization

- in having a one year visa, you may work in accordance to the approval of stay

- after five years you can apply for a permanent visa and after this for Croatian citizenship

- this will mean: cancelling your former citizenship

- but: when married with a Croatian citizen (independent on where you married) you will get your temporarily visa with ease and be able to apply for a permanent visa after three years instead of five years.

I was born Dutch (Netherlands) live in Croatia for fourteen years and am married to a Bosnian woman and it took me twelve years to get a permanent approval of stay..... ; Bureaucracy is terrible in Croatia and even more terrible is the mentality: it;s hard to find someone willing to help you and knowledge level of their own laws is very low.

Were you thinking on getting citizenship by your grandparents?
