# Drone no-fly zones in Croatia

**canfly? does not carry Croatia's zone data.** Croatia's UAS geographical zones are not published in machine-readable form. This page states who publishes them, where to check them, and what applies under the EU drone rules regardless.

## Why it is not here
Croatia Control publishes drone zones through the login-gated AMC Portal and in the AIP as PDF documents. There is no machine-readable dataset to ingest. (An ArcGIS "UAS GEO ZONES" viewer is often mistaken for Croatia's - it is Slovenia's.)

## Key facts
- Status: not published in machine-readable form
- Responsible authority: Croatia Control (AMC)
- Official source: https://www.crocontrol.hr/
- Last verified by canfly?: 2026-07-11
- Legal basis: Regulation (EU) 2019/947, Article 15

## What still applies when flying in Croatia
The EU-wide rules apply in Croatia exactly as in the 16 states canfly? does cover - only the zone data is missing, not the law.

- Operator registration, done once in your country of residence, is valid EU/EEA-wide.
- The Open / Specific / Certified categories and the 120 m height limit apply unchanged.
- Class marking and remote-ID obligations follow the drone, not the country.
- Croatia's national geographical zones are legally binding whether or not a third-party map shows them. Check them against Croatia Control (AMC).

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I fly a drone in Croatia?
Yes, under the EU-wide rules in Regulation (EU) 2019/947 - the same operator registration, remote-ID and open/specific/certified categories that apply across the EU and EEA - but you must stay clear of Croatia's UAS geographical zones. canfly? does not carry those zones, because Croatia does not publish its drone zones in machine-readable form - they exist as maps, images or PDF documents. Check them against Croatia Control (AMC) before you fly. The official source is https://www.crocontrol.hr/.

### Where do I check drone no-fly zones in Croatia?
With Croatia Control (AMC), which is the authority responsible for publishing Croatia's UAS geographical zones under Regulation (EU) 2019/947, Article 15. The official source is https://www.crocontrol.hr/. It is free to use.

### Why doesn't canfly? show Croatia's drone zones?
Croatia Control publishes drone zones through the login-gated AMC Portal and in the AIP as PDF documents. There is no machine-readable dataset to ingest. (An ArcGIS "UAS GEO ZONES" viewer is often mistaken for Croatia's - it is Slovenia's.)

### Does Croatia publish machine-readable drone-zone data?
No. As of 2026-07-11, Croatia publishes its drone restrictions as maps, images or documents rather than as a dataset, so no application can read them automatically. canfly? tracks this for every EU and EEA state at https://canfly.io/coverage.
