What Should I Know Before I Go to Croatia and Medjugorje?
Communications
Like most places in the world today, cellular communication is available throughout much of Croatia as well as Bosnia and Herzegovina. Please be sure to check with your provider to understand the fees and options available for your phone. Free WiFi is available in most hotels and many restaurants.
Electricity
The electrical current in is 220 volts, 50 cycles alternating current (AC); wall outlets take plugs with two round prongs.
Consider making a small investment in a universal adapter, which has several types of plugs in one lightweight, compact unit. Most laptops and mobile phone chargers are dual voltage (i.e., they operate equally well on 110 and 220 volts), so require only an adapter. These days the same is true of small appliances such as hair dryers. Always check labels and manufacturer instructions to be sure. Don’t use 110-volt outlets marked “for shavers only” for high-wattage appliances such as hair-dryers.
Money
Even though Croatia is a part of the European Union, they still use their own currency: the Kuna. Likewise, Bosnia and Herzegovina uses the Convertible Mark. However, the Euro is widely accepted.
Passports and Visas
US Citizens do not need a visa to visit Croatia or Bosnia and Herzegovina for up to 90 days. However, your passport must not expire within three months of arrival or you will be denied entry.
