As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, a Croatian covid certificate can be obtained by all individuals who have been vaccinated with both doses of the COVID-19 vaccine (Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca), or by persons who have been vaccinated with two doses of different vaccines which are to be received in two doses (for example, the person has received their first dose of AstraZeneca, and their second vaccine was Pfizer).
Croatian covid certificates can also be obtained by those who have been vaccinated with a single dose vaccine (Janssen). In all of the above cases, the certificate will be valid for 365 days from the day of the second dose vaccination, or their first, if they’ve had the Janssen vaccine. In the case of the Janssen vaccine, people may request confirmation no sooner than the fifteenth day after having received their vaccine.
Individuals vaccinated with the first dose of the two-dose vaccines (Pfizer, Moderna) may request confirmation on day 22 following the first dose of the vaccine. The certificate will be valid for 42 days from the date of administration of the vaccine. It will then be renewed and bumped up to one year of validity following their second dose.
People vaccinated with the first dose of the other vaccine given in two doses (AstraZeneca) can ask for confirmation on the 22nd day after receiving the first dose of the vaccine. The certificate will be valid for 84 days from the date of administration of the vaccine. It will then be renewed and bumped up to one year of validity following their second dose.
Croatian covid certificates can also be requested by persons who have been vaccinated with one dose of the vaccine received in two doses (Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca) and who have proof of a positive PCR test in the past 180 days from the day of receiving the vaccine. They can request a certificate from the day of vaccination, and the certificate will be valid for 365 days from the day of receipt of the vaccine as long as they can present proof of them having contracted and recovered from the virus as stated.
Persons who have received a booster dose or a third dose of a vaccine typically received in two doses may request a new Croatian covid certificate which will be valid from the day of their vaccination with their booster, which will then be valid for 365 days.
People who have been vaccinated with a single dose vaccine (Janssen) and then received an additional booster dose of another vaccine (one which is typically received in two doses) can request a new certificate from the date of their booster, and that document will be valid for 365 days in this case as well.
These rules apply to all vaccines for which a Croatian covid certificate can currently be issued.
You can obtain your certificate at any Croatian pharmacy by presenting proof of your vaccination and showing a form of photo ID. If you have access to e-Gradjani (as a resident), you can also obtain it that way.
