Drastic augmentation of the sojourn tax for boats in Croatia as of 2018.

If you have your boat in Croatia, or if you plan to visit the country next year, you might find useful to know that last August the Croatian government has adopted a decision which will lead to a drastic increase of the sojourn tax for boat staying or visiting Croatia. In some cases, this augmentation represents +900% of the current tax (see the table below).

 You can find the decision of the Croatian government here: http://narodne-novine.nn.hr/clanci/sluzbeni/2017_08_78_1922.html

We informed our favorite French sailing revue "Voile Magazine" about this increase, and they made a full page report in their November 2017 issue (see photo).
