What Changes Once You're Actually Driving

In Croatia, traffic keeps to the right, which will feel familiar coming from Canada, especially at roundabouts and intersections without clear signage.

Rental staff and local authorities in Croatia typically want to see your passport, your provincial license, and an IDP translation document together. Keeping all three in one place at pickup saves time — here's a full packing checklist.

  • Passport and provincial license required at pickup
  • IDP translation document recommended alongside your license
  • Confirm transmission type and fuel before you drive off
