Section for holiday home and apartment owners

 

Mandatory registration and payment of tourist tax

 

MANDATORY REGISTRATION – EVISITOR SYSTEM

 

The holiday home or apartment owner is obligated to register all persons staying in that accommodation in the eVisitor system within 24 hours of their arrival and deregister them as visitors on the last day of their visit.  The process of registration and deregistration of tourists with the Tourism Board is performed through the eVisitor system, the central electronic system for registration and deregistration of tourists in the Republic of Croatia. It is available online as a web or mobile phone application and does not need to be installed on a computer.

 

User information required to access the eVisitor system may only be obtained by the holiday home or apartment owner, in two ways:

- by submitting a request to create an eVisitor user account on the eVisitor link / Request to create a user account (e-Citizens),

- to the address: Tourist Information Centre of the City of Krk Tourist Board, 9 J. J. Strossmayer, 51500 Krk, Tel: 051 220 226, info@visitkrk.city.

 

In order to create an eVisitor user account, the following documents must be provided:

1. ID card,

2. Filled out request to enter a natural person into the eVisitor system and a statement of downloading the TAN list download link,     

3. Proof of ownership of the holiday home or apartment

(e.g. sales/purchase contract, land registry extract, certificate of succession, decision on determining the special tax rate for holiday homes/apartments, decision on legalising illegally built buildings, cadastral extract, or proof of submitting a request to legalise illegally built buildings).

 

If the property owner is unable to personally download user information, an agent may do so on their behalf through power of attorney authenticated by a notary public. In addition to the power of attorney, the agent must also present their ID card and a copy of the property owner’s ID card.

 

If the apartment is owned by a company, a copy of the extract form the commercial register must be delivered in addition to the aforementioned documents.

 

TOURIST TAX

 

Payment of the tourist tax is mandatory during the high season from 15 June to 15 September.

 

Holiday home or apartment owners (“weekenders”) shall only pay the flat-rate tourist tax for themselves and all members of the immediate family, who are European Economic Area (EEA) nationals. Holiday home or apartment owners may choose to pay the flat-rate tourist tax until 15 July of the current year.

 

In accordance with the Tourist Tax Act, members of the immediate family are considered as follows: spouses and domestic partners, life-partners pursuant to special legislation that regulates same-sex life partnerships, direct relatives and their spouses, siblings and their spouses, adopters and adoptees and their children with spouses, foster children, stepchildren, stepmothers and stepfathers.

 

The overnight tourist tax is charged to all persons who are not the owner or members of their immediate family (“friends”). If the holiday home or apartment owner fails to pay the flat-rate tourist tax for themself or members of their immediate family until 15 June, they must pay the overnight tourist tax for themself and members of their immediate family until the end of high season, with the amount thereof deducted, as specified in the following paragraph.

 

Holiday home or apartment owners (“weekenders”) shall pay the tourist tax for themselves and all members of their immediate family, who are EEA nationals, during the high season in the amount deducted by 70% (the full amount of the tourist tax is EUR 1.90). The aforementioned deduction does not apply if the holiday home or apartment is owned by a company, i.e. legal person.

 

If the holiday home or apartment owner fails to report and execute the payment of the flat-rate tourist tax for themself or a member of their immediate family until 15 July of the current year, they shall also pay the overnight tourist tax for the aforementioned persons. If the holiday home or apartment owner reports the payment of the flat-rate tourist tax for themself or a member of their immediate family without either of them staying at the holiday home or apartment during the high season, the entitlement of the former to a refund of the previously paid flat-rate tourist tax or any deductions arising from such circumstances shall cease. Holiday home or apartment owners are not obligated to pay the tourist tax after high season.

The eVisitor system allows you to check your tourist tax debt balance.
