Croatia extends Work and Residence Permits
 

According to Schengen New Reports, the Ministry of Interior in Croatia has decided to extend the maximum stay duration allowed for Croatian Work and Residence permits. The validity period of the Croatian Work and Residence permit will be extended to three years from one year.
