Travel Guide
Travelling to Croatia with a Disability Card
Use provider benefits to plan a visit, and keep them separate from rights available through the Croatian system.
Source information reviewed: . Policies and prices can change.
Start with the provider
Museums, parks, transport companies and organisers set their own published benefits and document requirements. There is no single universal admission discount for every disability-card holder. Check your nationality and document where the provider’s policy makes them relevant.
A practical example: Plitvice Lakes
The recorded park offer provides free admission for people with mobility difficulties and people with a disability greater than 50%, with a valid card. A personal assistant or a companion of a person with mobility difficulties may enter free under the published conditions.
The park is not fully accessible. Choose your entrance and programme according to your mobility needs and confirm the route, steps and gradients before booking.
Ask about the companion separately
Check how many companions are covered, what they pay and whether proof of the need for assistance is required. A discount for the visitor does not establish a discount for a companion.
Rights in Croatia are a separate system
Residence, disability status, income, employment and other legal conditions can affect rights in the Croatian system. Do not treat the Croatian rights catalogue as a list of tourist benefits. The detailed catalogue is available in Croatian.
Before you go
Confirm accepted proof, ticket collection, reservations and the facilities you need. Disability cards and parking cards have different purposes; check parking rules separately.
