Whether you already own a property in Croatia or you are just about to buy one, the idea of leasing your property to tourists may have crossed your mind. Tourism is prevalent and developed in Croatia, so offering real estate lease to guests can be a very payable business. Please keep reading to find out more about the business’s basic rules for foreigners, written by our tax advisor Ivica Baban.

Real estate lease in Croatia

Foreign natural persons who are owners of real estate in the Republic of Croatia may provide tourist accommodation services.
What steps and tax obligations are required to provide a tourist accommodation service depends primarily on whether foreign natural persons who own real estate in the Republic of Croatia come from:
1. Member States of the European Union, the European Economic Area (Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein) or the Swiss Confederation
2. Other countries.

In this blog, we will address the situation where tourist accommodation is provided by foreigners coming from Member States of the European Union, the European Economic Area (Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein) or the Swiss Confederation.

Leasing properties in Croatia – Step by step guide

They may provide tourist accommodation services in the Republic of Croatia as natural persons without registering a craft or a company. The initial step is to obtain a work permit from the competent rental authority. In this way, foreigners are considered to be renters providing tourist accommodation service and natural persons resident in the Republic of Croatia. It is also necessary to be entered into the register of taxpayers in the Republic of Croatia on the prescribed form.

Tax obligations arising from the provision of tourist accommodation service can be divided into two groups:
a) As natural persons, renters are subject to income tax on the provision of tourist accommodation services, which they can pay:

1. In a lump sum by their own decision, if the receipts from the provision of tourist accommodation services do not exceed the amount of HRK 300,000.00 annually
2. If their receipts from the provision of tourist accommodation services exceed the amount of HRK 300,000.00 annually, they are obliged to keep business books and pay income tax based on the prescribed rates (currently, the income tax rates are 24% and 36%).

b) Renters are subject to VAT if they provide tourist accommodation directly to the guest and as renters are obliged to issue an invoice in which they will calculate VAT of 13%, which they are obliged to report as VAT payers in the Republic of Croatia on the prescribed form (20th day of the current month for the previous month) and pay within the legal deadline (the last day of the current month for the previous month).

If, as renters, they provide tourist accommodation service through a tourist agency, they are not obliged to become VAT payers in the Republic of Croatia, nor do they calculate VAT on the invoices they issue to the tourist agency. It is important to point out that in this case, the tourist agency issues an invoice to the guest on its own behalf, while the foreign owner of the property in which the tourist accommodation service is provided issues an invoice to the tourist agency without VAT.

If the agency would only work as an intermediary and issue an invoice for the intermediary to the foreigner, then the renter would be obliged to register as a VAT payer in the Republic of Croatia and to the invoices, it issues to the guest directly (and for which the tourist agency mediated ) to calculate VAT of 13%.

The registration itself as a VAT payer in the Republic of Croatia is done on the prescribed forms before providing real estate lease services.

The „value for money” term can be understood and measured in many different ways. How high does historical value, recognized and acknowledged throughout the world, score on that list? In our opinion, pretty high. Therefore, let’s talk a little about UNESCO localities in Croatia, shall we?

 

Adriatic’s shinest pearl

 

So, which lovely town could this be? It’s Dubrovnik, of course! This lovely city has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1979.

It became an important Mediterranean sea power from the 13th century onwards. Although severely damaged by an earthquake in 1667, Dubrovnik managed to preserve its beautiful Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces, and fountains. Most famous for its stunning, 1940 m long city walls, Dubrovnik is home to numerous unique sites, such as St. Blaise’s church, Onforio’s fountain, Orlando’s column, and the famous Stradun promenade, to name a few.

The growing number of visitors arrive in this city every year, including many world-known names, and enjoy the city’s unique charm, complemented by a great offer of luxury real estate in Dubrovnik. Luxury villas in Dubrovnik can be found in various locations, featuring a marvelous view and stunning design, making them a worthwhile real estate investment.

The heart of Dalmatia

 

37 years ago, on October 26th, 1979, UNESCO listed the 4th century Diocletian’s Palace and Split’s historical center on the World Heritage List. What an honor for Croatia’s second-largest city and center of the Dalmatia region! Diocletian’s Palace is one of the most preserved and complete remains of a Roman palace globally, but there is more to Split’s historical beauty than just this palace. If you happen to swing by this city, be sure also to visit the Cathedral of st. Domnius and the seaside promenade.

As part of the most important list of historical and natural sites of global importance, Split is today one of the most popular destinations in Croatia and the Mediterranean. Being a living organism, not just an empty museum-like shell, preserved it for so long in its full glow, enabling visitors to walk the streets still as vivid and beautiful as they were in the Roman times. Equally as vivid and beautiful are the luxury villas and apartments in Split. Whether you opt for a villa right in the middle of Split or you prefer luxury real estate just outside of Split, this city will answer all of your luxury comfort and design needs.

Medieval beauty at its finest

 

It may be small in size, but it is great in its historical importance and the beauty of its monuments. Since 1997, Trogir is a proud holder of the „ UNESCO World Heritage” title. It is the best-preserved Romanesque-Gothic complex in Central Europe. Trogir’s medieval core, surrounded by walls, comprises a preserved castle, tower, and a series of dwellings and palaces from the Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque periods. The central attraction is the cathedral of st. Lawrence settled in the central town square. Since its construction lasted several centuries, it illustrates all the styles that succeeded one another in Dalmatia.

The whole city center preserved Trogir’s original charm and historical value. Walking its streets, you will, at moments, feel as if the time has stopped, and you will, for sure, wish to stay there for at least a few days. Finding great accommodation in line with top design and luxury real estate standards is quite possible in the Trogir area. Luxury villas in Trogir and its surroundings will ensure a great stay at any time of the year.

Seal it with a royal city

 

Best known as the home to Croatia’s great king Petar Krešimir IV, Šibenik was proudly added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2000, thanks to its most stunning historical monument within the city walls – the 16th-century gothic cathedral of st. James. But, Šibenik’s UNESCO journey did not end here. Just last year, this city was honored once again when the breathtaking sea fortress of st. Nicolas entered the List as well! In this way, Šibenik became Croatia’s only city with two UNESCO protected monuments.

Besides these two unique beauties, Šibenik is a proud home to many other amazing sites: The Old Town Hill, St. John’s fortress, St. Michael’s Fortress, St. Barbara’s church, Civic museum… So, the picture of a perfect vacation destination paints itself – its nature, its history, and amazing luxury villas in Šibenik. Believe us, Šibenik hides many real estate jewels, especially if a luxury villa in Šibenik is what you are looking for.

When buying a property, often the foremost is the aesthetics or location of the property itself. However, the purchase of real estate is a legal process, so we must not neglect the legal side. What should you do, and how or when should you do it to make your purchase neat and easy as possible? All of this shall be explained through a series of blogs by our tax advisor Ivica Baban.

Foreign citizens who buy real estate in the Republic of Croatia are generally divided into two groups, depending on where they come from. Citizens living within the European Union make one group, while those living outside the EU make the other.

Why is this important?

While foreigners from the European Union may purchase real estate in the Republic of Croatia under the same conditions as nationals of the Republic of Croatia, those living outside the EU must obtain consent for the purchase of a real estate in the Republic of Croatia from the Ministry of Justice of the Republic in the administrative procedure. Without this consent, the new owner could not registrar his ownership of the land he purchased.

The only exception from this rule are agricultural land, for they are subject to a moratorium on their purchase by foreign nationals from the EU until June 2020.

There is an additional requirement concerning non-EU citizens. Only citizens coming from countries with which Croatia has reciprocity in acquiring the ownership rights of their nationals may go to administrative proceedings and seek the Ministry of Justice’s consent.

Consequently, other non-EU nationals coming from countries with which the Republic of Croatia does not have the principle of reciprocity in acquiring ownership of their citizens’ real estate may not, as natural persons, purchase real estate in Croatia.

Yet, there is another option for them. They may decide to set up a company (most often, it is a limited liability company or abbreviated d.o.o.) in Croatia. As owners of companies with headquarters in the Republic of Croatia, they may acquire ownership of the real estate.

It is necessary to know that the owner of the purchased property is then the company, not the owner of the company himself.

Don’t forget the taxes.

When buying a property in Croatia, in addition to the purchase costs, the buyer may be obliged to pay a real estate tax (PPN). The height of this tax can be defined in two ways. It is either 3% of the property’s purchase price or 3% of the estimated property value by the Croatian Tax Administration.

This will occur when the seller does not calculate value-added tax (VAT) for the property sold, as evidenced by the seller’s purchase contract or invoice issued.

Notaries are obliged to submit a copy of the purchase contract to the Republic of Croatia’s Tax Administration, which will send a decision on the obligation to pay real estate taxes.

In case that a notary does not certify the real estate transfer documents, the buyer is obliged to declare the obligation to pay real estate sales tax in Croatia within 30 days for those real estates that have not been subject to value-added tax on the sale.

Taxes apply to all – a foreign citizen from outside the EU who requires the Ministry of justice’s consent becomes taxable at the moment of obtaining that consent.

The 36-year old Maja Bručić, architect and founder of the Lotus Architect studio, does not cease to impress us with her ideas. In between working on numerous projects, she has managed to find some time for us and reveal some of her rituals, habits, and opinions on the real estate market’s current and expected architectural trends.

What does an average day of the most sought after Croatian architects look like?

My day begins around 8 am when I make myself a cup of double Mocca – the so-called bullet coffee (coffee, raw cocoa, oat milk, cinnamon, some honey). It’s the perfect kick-start for a working day. I immediately start with my business obligations. While drinking coffee, I handle the “most difficult” and most urgent business situations in the peace and comfort of my home.

I come to the office sometime before noon. There I solve all the current challenges with my team, follow their work, get involved in absolutely every project, actively participate in them, and encourage my team to take the initiative, be proactive, and take responsibility.

Usually, I have several meetings with clients, associates, and suppliers every day. The number of messages and calls I receive daily is also meaningful. I often go directly to the field, so business travels are practically a part of my routine since most projects are located on the coast, and many of my clients are foreigners. After a hard day, I usually relax by going to the wellness and spa area, and almost every day, I do sports, mostly running and tennis. I do not forget friends, family, and dear people, and I need to communicate with them every day. Often we spend time together at dinners – in a restaurant or at home. In these situations, listening to music is mandatory.

Where do you find inspiration for your work?

I find my inspiration in music, travels, people, and relationships. Most of all, I am inspired by love. I often get ideas through love relationships. Mostly it happens as I relax at home in a bath with a couple of tablespoons of salt and music. It inspires the best ideas.

What type of projects do you find most satisfying?

The projects that inspire me most are where I instantly connect with the client, where we are headed together toward the same goal, and enjoy that journey together. After that, I am most intrigued by the project’s size because bigger projects give you more challenges. Finally, projects have a higher meaning, that is, projects that change people’s awareness and future.

And clients – what are they like? Are there any differences between Croatian and foreign ones?

I considered myself blessed for working with local clients who are top professionals and experts in their professions, and at the same time learning from them and expanding my consideration means. I love my Croatian clients and associates. Then again, I must admit that generally, clients abroad are more understanding of our expertise and appreciate the architect’s opinion and profession more. Also, they are generally less demanding than domestic ones.

What are the top trends in the world of real estate in 2019, and what can we expect of it in 2020?

In 2019 and 2020, and beyond, trends are different in different spheres of architecture. Still, some general trends that cover all spheres are natural materials, i.e., connecting with nature as much as possible, connecting interior and exterior spaces, merging space, environmental concerns, or how the project will affect the environment. Care is taken to minimize the devastation of the surroundings and integrate as much as possible with the existing terrain. The focus is on sustainable and green and the use of renewable energy sources.

When it comes to homes, how would you describe current demands on the real estate market? How hard is it to comply with them?

At present, residential architecture in Croatia is satisfying. However, if we are talking about the luxury segment, Croatia does not meet the market needs. The demand is much higher than the supply, and the supply of supposedly luxury objects often does not meet the external standards. The partner company I work with, the Consilium Expert Group, is focused on that segment, and the plan is to change the scene in the luxury real estate in the Republic of Croatia in the next ten years.

The goal is to offer superior solutions, exceptional design, and a high degree of comfort, guided by global trends and environmental concerns. Globally, traditional construction cannot meet the needs of an increasing number of people, so other solutions are now being considered, and a revolution in construction and architecture is expected, as it once was in the IT industry, such as creating fast-folding homes on land to speed up the construction process. As I have already stated, people’s awareness increases, and more and more quality natural materials are selected regarding traditional construction.

Taking future trends predictions into consideration, what would you advise to the investors?

When choosing a developer, look for an inspiring experience that will make positive changes and make a difference. I believe that it is possible to profit at the same time, have a profitable story, and do something new, better, different, and of better quality. Then, the pleasure of both myself and my work is much greater. Indeed, in my work so far, I have noticed that the people who have the most are the ones who aspire to it. This is what we at Lotus and the Consilium Expert Group hold and what you will always recognize in us. We are authentic in everything we do, and therefore it is no coincidence that so many people contact us and want to work with us. Trust is the key ingredient of a successful collaboration.

An incredible view, high-end design, comfort, and luxury – sounds like a perfect home. Yet, there is another element that can take your perfect home dreams to a whole new level. If you combine a great home with an even better service, the whole experience can be truly incredible. With „new generation” villas, you really can have it all!

The concept

New generation properties offer a complete experience and the availability of all the accompanying contents within the resort in which the villa is located. In combination with top-of-the-line design, they provide its owner with complete comfort and relaxation. Besides the luxury home itself, these properties offer lots of other content, such as swimming pools, tended gardens, and parking spaces, including constant maintenance of the property throughout the year.

In this way, whenever you come by your property, it will look and feel as perfect as possible, always well tended and maintained, just as you want and need it to be. This concept is ideal for homeowners who can’t live on their property during the whole year and stop by occasionally. Every time you decide to come to your property, it will look the same as the last time you were there.

On the other hand, even if you plan a permanent move to your „new generation” villa, wouldn’t it be perfect to have all these things taken care of? That way, you can devote yourself only to enjoying yourself at your dream home.

Location, location, location!

Besides great design and excellent service, we all enjoy a nice view, preferably a sea view. This is one reason why properties on islands, especially in Dalmatia, always make the list of top choices for many future homeowners.

Luckily, „new generation” villas can also be found in these locations, and we know all the best places and properties to have a look at. Start making your home dreams true – today!
