Moving to Croatia | Emigrating to Croatia
Moving to Croatia: Croatia is a veritable paradise on the Adriatic Sea and annually attracts a large number of expats from around the world who emigrate to the Eastern European country. There are many reasons why this Mediterranean country has such a great appeal: the more than 1000 islands, the extraordinary nature, the cosy mentality of its people and the moderate cost of living; which allow expats to live a great life in Croatia.
Anyone wishing to move to Croatia to work should have a good level of education, relevant work experience and German, English and Croatian language skills. There are many Jobs to be found, especially in the medical sector, shipbuilding, the rapidly growing tourism sector, as well as in wholesaling, retailing and industry. Higher salaries can be achieved if you already have advanced language skills.
However, the unemployment rate in Croatia is relatively high, which is why one should think carefully before moving to this country and already have a good level of education. It is advisable to contact established companies and secure a job before moving to Croatia, as this will greatly facilitate your new life in this Eastern European country.

Where to Live
The cost of living varies by region, where the tourist areas tend to have Western European prices but where the further you move into the interior of the country the cheaper it gets. Therefore, expats should decide before moving to Croatia, whether they want to live in one of the tourism strongholds on the coast or instead to Zagreb or one of the other Croatian cities, away from the sea.
In Zagreb, there is also a German school, which should be of particular interest to families with children. Generally, the best conditions for expats wanting to work are in this city, more so than people that just want to retire. This is because the coastal cities are relatively quiet in the winter and there are not many opportunities to work, which is not true in Zagreb.
Other cities to consider when moving to Croatia include Split, Rijeka or Osijek.

Language
Anyone who decides to relocate to Croatia should try to learn the language, as it makes situations in everyday and professional life that much easier and also helps with integration into Croatian society.
Knowing the language is also extremely helpful in other countries, as it is possible to communicate not only in Croatia but also in Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina and parts of Macedonia.
