Many people have asked us if Croatia is in the Schengen Area or Zone now, since it’s an official member of the European Union, however, this status alone doesn’t automatically grant a country entry into the Schengen Area (as is the case with Croatia).
Although Croatia became a member of the EU in July of 2013, it’s not yet in the Schengen Area / Zone. It’s working towards entry, but it’s unpredictable when Croatia will be officially accepted.
