A Croatian branch is a great option for SMEs entering Croatia due to several advantages over other structures. Firstly, Croatian branches pay no dividend tax, which can save a significant amount of money.
Additionally, there is no requirement for local financial statements, which can reduce administrative costs. Furthermore, a Croatian branch can be a more flexible option for companies that want to maintain a closer connection to their parent company.
Say goodbye to personal meetings with notaries and hardcopy registration forms. The registration of a branch is typically easier, cheaper, and faster to register. This is especially true in the EU, but also in many other regions.
Using our Entity Portal, you can register your branch, without involving any lawyer or accountant, in more than 10 countries! At a fraction of the legal costs of setting up a local entity.

We guarantee that we can open a bank or EMI account in Croatia, so you will be able to operate with a local Croatian IBAN number. No cure, no pay!

You can decide to register a Branch as a Representative Office, which would not have to pay taxes, or even submit a tax return. As a fully operational branch, the same corporate taxes typically apply, but there are no withholding taxes on outgoing dividends!

When a company expands overseas, it may need to register an overseas branch of its legal entity. In many countries, foreign companies must register as a branch to establish a permanent establishment and conduct business.
The process of branch registration can be complex, as it often involves understanding many complicated forms and document requirements of the foreign country.
This may include providing documentation such as:
Additionally, the process may require obtaining a local business license, registering with tax authorities, and complying with local employment laws. It is also important to consider the tax implications of branch registration, as the company may become subject to the foreign country's tax laws and regulations.
The branch registration procedure in Croatia is simple, using the services of House of Companies.
By successfully completing the branch registration process, the company can establish a legitimate and compliant presence in the foreign country, enabling it to expand its operations and reach new markets.
When considering the advantages of branch registration compared to setting up a subsidiary, it is crucial to weigh the potential benefits and drawbacks based on the specific needs and goals of the parent company.
One significant advantage of branch registration is the ability to carry out business activities in the Croatian market under the parent company's name, thereby maintaining a unified brand identity across borders. Additionally, branch registration typically requires less capital and administrative burden compared to establishing a subsidiary, as the parent company retains ownership and control over the branch's operations.
Moreover, branch registration allows for seamless transfer of resources and expertise from the parent company to the Croatian market, maximizing operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness. It is also important to note that branch registration comes with its own set of legal obligations and compliance requirements, which can vary depending on the company law and regulations of the foreign jurisdiction.
Therefore, it is advisable to seek the assistance of a reputable notary or lawyer with expertise in foreign company registration to navigate the complex legal and bureaucratic processes involved in establishing a branch and maintaining compliance with local laws. Ultimately, the decision between branch registration and subsidiary formation should be carefully evaluated in light of the company's strategic objectives, financial resources, and risk tolerance.
