Croatia’s Tax Administration (Porezna uprava) has published the first half-year results since the country’s expanded fiscalization rules took effect on January 1, 2026.
Businesses issued 1,195,725,547 fiscal receipts between January and June 2026, with a combined value of €25.14 billion.
The data covers the first six months under Croatia’s expanded fiscalization regime, which requires end-consumer transactions to be fiscalized regardless of payment method. In previous years, fiscalization of transaction-account payments was optional. As a result, the Tax Administration notes that 2026 data is not directly comparable with earlier years.
Monthly results were as follows:
January 2026: 178,507,221 receipts; €3.45 billion.
February 2026: 179,551,137 receipts; €3.59 billion.
March 2026: 206,010,353 receipts; €4.33 billion.
April 2026: 213,192,149 receipts; €4.54 billion.
May 2026: 225,756,064 receipts; €4.87 billion.
June 2026: 192,708,623 receipts; €4.37 billion.
Wholesale and retail trade was the largest activity category, with 798.0 million receipts and €16.04 billion in value during the first half of the year.
Accommodation and food service activities followed with 224.8 million receipts and €3.21 billion. Manufacturing recorded 63.4 million receipts and €874.2 million, while information and communication recorded 14.6 million receiptsand €538.9 million.
By region, the City of Zagreb recorded the highest activity, with 307.7 million receipts and €6.73 billion in value. Split-Dalmatia recorded 141.1 million receipts and €2.93 billion, followed by Primorje-Gorski Kotar with 86.6 million receipts and €1.93 billion.
The Tax Administration also noted that around 6 million receipts, worth approximately €501.7 million, are classified as “Other” because the relevant taxpayers have not registered a business activity.
The fiscalization reporting portal allows data to be reviewed by period, location and economic activity, and is available for public use with source attribution.
