Nature Protection Act (Official Gazette No 80/2013)
Nature Protection Act published in the Official Gazette No. 80/2013 regulates the system of protection and conservation of nature and its components, and other relevant issues in this regard. Among others, it regulates issuing of permits in cases of:
· access and use of genetic material of native wild species for creating new products and patents (Articles 9.1 (20), 89, 90, 91, 92, 93 and 96);
· access and taking samples of strictly protected species (Articles 91.2 and 155);
· access of native wild species for the purpose of doing research, collecting and sampling in our protected areas (Article 145).
In other cases permit is not need i.e. for collecting genetic material of species that are not strictly protected, from areas outside of protected areas, and for research-only purposes (without creating new products for sale and/or patents).
In „Additional information“ section there are links to the list of strictly protected species (to check the species to be sampled) and map of protected areas (to check the location of planned collection of the sample) in Croatia.

If the coordinates of the location from which you plan to collect your sample are available, you can click on icon "Zoom to coordinates" ("Zumiraj na koordinate") and enter the coordinates. Alternatively, you can enter the name of your location in the field "Google Places pretraga“. The search will show if your location is within protected areas.
In case collecting is planned in protected areas of national importance - strict reserve (strogi rezervat), national park (nacionalni park), special reserve (posebni rezervat) or nature park (park prirode) - the Ministry needs to issue a permit for research and collecting activities in these categories of protected areas.
If collecting is planned in protected areas of local importance - regional park (regionalni park), nature monument (spomenik prirode), significant landscape (značajni krajobraz), park forest (park šuma) and park architecture monument (spomenik parkovne arhitekture) - potential user will have to request a permit from the local nature protection authority.
