The SF workshop was great. I have already been granted citizenship (yay!) but I wanted to hear about the other topics that were presented and also learn about others who are seeking same. It was good to get some info on business, taxes, healthcare and the like. It was great to meet Sara finally in person. I had a session with her a couple years ago and I used to call into the FQFs when she was doing them. I have received so much valuable information from EIC in past years. I appreciate all that Sara and her team are providing. Thank you!

I found the workshop very helpful. There were several things discussed that I was not aware that will help me in my process towards receiving Croatian citizenship. Also, hearing the many pitfalls that can derail the citizenship process and having a chance to briefly talk to an attorney was extremely helpful.

I attended a citizenship workshop at the Croatian Cultural Center in San Francisco. Sara Dyson and her EIC team are very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. They provided an excellent workshop, clearly sharing information about living in Croatia and applying for citizenship while acknowledging the nuances of bureaucracy and sharing their love of Croatia. They expertly answered questions. I would recommend attending a workshop or using EIC consulting services.

I recently booked a consulting session with Expat in Croatia to help me navigate the pathway to Croatian citizenship, along with some general guidance on the process. CAM (Carol Anne) was exceptional throughout our session. She thoroughly answered all of my questions, providing clear, detailed, and accurate insights that completely demystified what can otherwise be a complex and overwhelming procedure. The consulting session not only met my expectations—it exceeded them. Since the meeting, the follow-up from both CAM and Lorena (my Account Manager) has been remarkably timely. It gives me great comfort knowing I have their ongoing guidance and support as I navigate this journey. I would highly recommend Expat in Croatia to any friends, family, or anyone looking for trustworthy, expert guidance on moving to or gaining citizenship in Croatia!

Sara was incredibly knowledgeable and lovely and kind. All of our questions were answered and we are looking forward to working with one of the vetted attorneys. Sara was thoughtful, thorough and used the time we had together extremely effectively. I can’t say enough about how valuable her service is as we think about going through the citizenship process.

My wife and I are US citizens and are awaiting the response from the Croatian Ministry regarding our citizenship applications. We are approaching retirement with the idea of spending much of our retirement years in Croatia. As we plan for this transition, we are quite overwhelmed on where to start on so many topics that we have questions about - our property search, tax considerations, learning the language, etc., etc., etc. The consultation I had with CAM and Marijana on these and other topics gave reassurance that there is a tremendous resource available to us to support us in this journey. I left the meeting not only with useful and practical information regarding our situation, but more importantly, a plan to start addressing in detail some of these important topics. I would suggest anyone in a similar situation reach out to EIC and schedule a consultation
