I obtained Croatian citizenship for my entire family through the expedited process. The lawyers found documents for my great-grandfather, who was born in Zagreb in 1920, conducted archival work, and collected all necessary confirmations. Now my wife, two children, and I have EU passports. My eldest son was accepted to a university in Vienna. We were able to open a company in Slovenia and are negotiating the opening of branches in other countries. I thank the Relocitizen team for their legal assistance and timely feedback.

As a freelancer in the IT sector, I was looking for a way to work legally with European clients. I turned to lawyers and found out that I have Croatian roots on my mother's side. The entire process took about a year. The specialists took care of all the archive and document work. I only needed to come to Croatia to obtain the certificate of citizenship. Now I live in Prague and work with clients across the EU. The Croatian passport solved all my visa issues. Thank you!

I am a surgeon and dreamed of working in a European clinic, which was almost impossible with a Russian passport. The team of lawyers suggested a relocation program to Croatia with citizenship. They advised me on all issues and supported me at every step. After 14 months, I received my EU passport. Now I am in the process of recognizing my diploma in Germany. The professional work of the Relocitizen team exceeded all my expectations.

Hello everyone! I have been working in international logistics for over 20 years. My goal was to obtain European citizenship to diversify risks. Lawyers offered me the repatriation program to Croatia because my grandmother was born in this country. I went through the consultation, provided documents, and received my Croatian passport within a year. Then I obtained status for my wife and daughter. Moving to the EU became a reality even for a Russian citizen. But it wouldn’t have been possible without experienced lawyers.

The main reason for my move to the EU was the education of my children. My husband and I considered different options, but the relocation program to Croatia seemed the most reliable. The lawyers conducted genealogical research and found confirmation of our Croatian roots. The entire process took less than 2 years. Today, my whole family lives in the EU, and my daughter attends an international school in Budapest. I believe Croatian citizenship is the best investment in the future.

My job requires constant international travel. With a Russian passport, traveling became problematic. Croatian citizenship, which the lawyers helped me obtain, solved many issues. The process was faster than I expected. The specialists professionally managed the case, even though I was often traveling. Thanks to the Croatian passport, I expanded my business and moved my family to Europe. Thank you, Relocitizen, for the fresh start!
