Ceremony details
Ceremony + photographyPermission depends on the exact site and activity
Permission rules differ across the places below. Choose the exact site before relying on any one route.
- The 2026 rule provides a permit path for temporary activity and events on maritime domain.
- Fee treatment depends on event and local management plan.
- Public access does not create exclusive-use, setup, photo, boat, or drone rights.
- Confirm noise, fire, transport, commercial photography, and drone rules.
Beautiful does not automatically mean ceremony-ready. Before paying a deposit, confirm your ceremony, equipment, photography, and setup with the land manager or owner.
Marriage paperworkVisitors can legally marry here
The ministry says foreign citizens may marry under the same conditions as Croatian citizens and states no Croatian-residency prerequisite.

- Provide a single-status certificate with translation.
- Provide confirmation of no obstacle and recognition in the state of citizenship.
- Provide photo ID and proof of citizenship.

Think of this as your paperwork starting point. Before paying a non-refundable deposit, ask the issuing authority to confirm the current licence, officiant, document, and ceremony-site rules for the two of you.
