Croatian authorities are significantly increasing inspections of holiday rentals, particularly along the coast. The State Inspectorate is focusing on properties listed on popular platforms like Booking.com and Airbnb. This crackdown targets owners who are operating without proper registration and permits, leading to fines being issued. The move aims to regulate the growing market of short-term tourist accommodation. Authorities are seeking to ensure fair competition and compliance with legal requirements within the tourism sector. This intensification of enforcement reflects a broader effort to manage the impact of tourism and protect the interests of registered accommodation providers. The initiative intends to improve the quality and safety of holiday rentals available to tourists.
