The temporary importation of pleasure boats
What are the basics?
Private vessels registered outside the customs territory of Croatia and owned by a person outside Croatia, which are intended for re-export may be temporarily be brought into and used for private purposes in Croatia, or more strictly in the “customs territory of Croatia”, (which includes our territorial waters) without customs duties or taxes needing to be paid. But this can only be done by persons who are not Croatian residents – in official terms – by people who are ‘established outside that territory’. This facility is thus NOT available to Croatian residents.
Vessels shall not be hired, lent or made available following their importation.
The boats concerned have to be placed under the ‘temporary importation procedure’ (IT) with Customs/Port Authority and the period of use in Croatia is limited in time. When the time is up the boathas to leave, in official jargon this period is called ‘the period of discharge’. The re-exportation of the goods form the customs territory Croatia is the usual way of ending or ‘discharging’
a temporary importation procedure. If the boat does not leave before the end of that time customs duty and taxes become due.
How can a yacht be placed under TI?
Normally, there are no customs formalities at importation or exportation. However, you may be required to use a route specified by customs and they may require you to make an oral or written customs declaration. It is possible they may require the provision of some kind of security or guarantee to cover the payment of the customs duties and taxes that become due if the boat does not leave Croatia.
How long can the yacht stay in Croatia?
Can the six months be extended if the yacht is not used?
Yes, the six month period may be extended for the time during which the yacht is not used. However, the maximum overall period during which the yacht can remain in Croatia is 24 months, even where the arrangements where discharged by placing the boat on the premises approved by and under the supervision of the customs authorities, and subsequently entered again for temporary importation.
Can you have another period of Temporary Importation? How long must you wait?
Yes, you are not limited to a single period of temporary import. You can sail the yacht out of Croatia and when you came back again for another holiday a new period of temporary importation can begin. The customs rules do not provide for a “minimum period” during which the goods must remain outside of the customs territory of Croatia.
Important
If person fails to comply with the conditions laid down for temporary import, that person can be held responsible in connection with the commission of a customs offense, and liable for the monetary penalties and customs duties and taxes incurred.
