Production Insurance
Comprehensive insurance solutions for film productions in Croatia.
Here is how this works in practice. Production insurance protects against the financial risks inherent in filmmaking. In Croatia, required HZZO (Croatian Health Insurance Fund) coverage applies to local crew, and heritage locations in Dubrovnik and Split need specific liability coverage, specific around UNESCO-listed structures.
We set up production insurance through Croatian and European brokers skilled in film coverage. Our team arranges policies that satisfy HZZO needs, heritage site mandates, and global distribution obligations.

On Location
We arrange production insurance for Croatian shoots, coordinating cover that meets EU requirements, financier demands and the conditions of the 'Filming in Croatia' rebate.
Here is how this works in practice. We set up the insurance a production needs to film safely and to satisfy financiers, studios and authorities. Our team works with brokers to arrange the standard programme, public and employer liability, gear, cast, errors and omissions, and production-specific cover for risks such as water work, stunts, aerial shooting and weather. We make sure cover is in place before prep starts. That certificates are ready for permit applications.
Here is the short of it. That the policy reflects the realities of a Croatian shoot, island logistics, historic locations and seasonal conditions. We keep insurance records ordered so it supports both the permit process and the rebates audit. We manage claims efficiently if an incident occurs.
Here is the breakdown. Insurance for shoots in Croatia operates within an EU framework. Croatia joined the European Union in 2013 and applies EU standards on workplace and liability cover, with agreements denominated in euros following the 2023 currency adoption. Permit applications set up through HAVC and the regional film commissions in Dubrovnik. Zagreb and Istria mostly need evidence of liability cover. Productions claiming the 25% 'Filming in Croatia' rebates need insurance records that fits cleanly into the audit.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Drone work falls under the Croatian Civil Aviation Agency and EU EASA rules. This carry their own insurance expectations. Major global shoots have insured large-scale shoots in Croatia. We draw on that experience to arrange cover that protects the production and meets each regulatory and financial need.
