- Croatia has become the latest country to adopt the euro as its currency, formally joining the eurozone as well as the Schengen area of free movement.
"This is a great achievement for Croatia," said European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. "A symbol of its deep-rooted attachment to the EU, and a symbolic moment for the euro area as a whole."
People in Croatia will be able to continue to use the Croatian Kuna as well as the euro, for a short transitional period over the next two weeks.
Croatia is the first country to join the Schengen zone in 11 years.

Agree on that! But I hope we will be again also country of more developed industrial production as we were before 90s war and very unlucky transition.
Tourism is ok but I would be better off with stronger development of industry and IT and high tech sector, bussiness areas that are bringing much more added value, expertise, development of knowledge and science all for which Croatia has great predispositions. Otherwise Croatian citizens are gonna keep on emigranting elsewhere.
So happy for Croatia, they so deserve this, been there 3 times a beautiful country and people
Deserve what
What, deserve to be poor and exploited?

Absolutely agreed! Thanks a lot dear pal!
@@pero33403 wtf. The only one who exploit Croatians are Croatian politicians themselves and the people allowed them. Poor is a state of mind.

I too hope the rest of you guys 🇩🇰🇸🇪 🇵🇱🇨🇿🇧🇬 🇷🇴 🇭🇺 adopt the Euro, I understand for some it is useful to have their own currencies as some actually use the devaluation in economic cases but for us the currency was already tied to the value of Euro and it will make trade easier for us.

I think it's really worth it for Croatia - their tourism industry is huge, a shared currency and open borders make everything a lot easier
Closed borders. There are now far more restrictions for tourist cunning from the world biggest market, the rest of the world, so I hope Croatia received at least 90% of tourist from the Schengen area, otherwise they have just hurt their tourism industry.
It's worth it to become the EU beach??

Oh well done Croatia, I completely forgot about that this was about to happen. Last time I was in Croatia was in 2011 I think and back then I still even had to receive a stamp in my czech passport as Croatia wasn’t even in the EU yet at the time. So for them to have finally joined Shenghen AND the Eurozone at the same time - congrats.
Czechs enjoy a strong crown right now but I hope they too will adopt the EU currency soon. In the long run it’s for the best
Heaven forbid you had to have your passport stamped.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience from visinting our country!

@@fapmashina1 Why lose your national currency for the freaking Euro?
@@WarhammerWings
You obviously don't know much about Croatia do you?!
Croatia is small country of only about 3.8 mill people which currency has been always closely tied with Euro, our large banks mother instotutions come from the Eurozone, huge majority of our export/import partners and tourists come also from this area, countless businessmen from Croatia operate both in Croatia and Eurozone and vice versa bussiness people from EU countries, majority of our citizens do have loans and savings denominated in Euro and so on!
Small economies that are that much immersed into the Eurozone and dependent on Euro can't afford to have completely different and small currency and not to be as much opened and integrated if it wishes to thrive! This is pure economical logic that can be easily proven in mathematics!

Classic European projection; most brexiteers aren't concerned about what is happening in the UK; it is *YOU* that actively want us to fail so that we are forced back into your club.
You like the way your laws are created for you by faceless, unelected people in Brussels, we do not. Sorry about that.

I think plenty of people who comment with foam coming out of their mouth don't understand what is the situation with currencies around the world (Brits * cough*). Whenever there are some global financial issues of any kind, the weaker currencies are getting hit much harder than Euro, even those of much larger countries than Croatia like Poland. Also Croatia is relying a lot on its tourism and many Croatians work abroad, so it is a helpful simplification. Personally I really love the name Kuna and its history, quite unique when compared to usual derivatives of goldens and crowns rampant through Europe, it is certainly a part of Croatian heritage, but ultimately money are but a tool.
It being helpful is no reason to join the Euro. I have no foam. I think its a mistake.
I'm certain you don't understand why it's important for an economy as large as the UK's to have control of its own currency by your (Brits * cough*) comment. It's nothing to do with nostalgia for the £ or being anti-EU, I'm 100% pro-EU, but giving away control of our currency would be a huge mistake.
euro can be a double edged sword. Just see Greece and how they have to rely on Germany to get capital within their country.
Euro is a modern day gold standard where countries like Greece can’t print money when they most need it. They have to rely on the good graces of the bigger European economies.
That being said, the euro is only behind the USD and provides stability and ease of access to capital from Europe.
@@Christian-ut5um Well I do live in Poland so I do know a bit about it first hand :P The 2008-2009 crisis resolution was mainly about spending policy (even more so since we never really overstretched ourselves like some other countries), not currency per se, although we were initially hit disproportionately hard because our currency was deemed "weak" by international markets and all the speculation. I vividly recall planning a trip to US with friends back then, coast to coast, it was all reasonable... and then PLN was just obliterated. Everytime somethings happens around the world, the imports prices go haywire. Can't count times something went out of my budget capability just because I was using PLN instead of EUR/GBP/USD.
Also I would hope EU's control has tightened up since Greece's case. I just remember how poor Greece was before joining. I don't know if I'm controversial, but I would lash them more for it and demand all the politicians responsible to be put to justice for what transpired.
@@gio-oz8gfBritain has population 16x the size of Croatia. Also it had an empire and partly because of that the pound is still one of the 4 most traded currencies.

@gamingvideos: i support dullxh no. Even if we wanted to return to the EU, it would be very detrimental for the UK and not worth it. UK growth was on a slow decline from 1993, when the EEC transitioned to the EU. If the UK joined back into the EU that downward slide would continue. In addition the EU would put way too many penalties on the UK. It would cost the UK way more than Brexit cost.
I embrace a free Europe, one that is free of the EU

@@jamiejosh96 you realise that for us to progress and stay relevant we need to form regional governments to direct actions that mutually benefit us instead of pitting us against each other.
@@DP-ic2lz lol and the only way to do that is an autocratic government🤦♂️
@@jamiejosh96 not really?
The current EU parliament is fairly Democratic. Its actually extremely Democratic given its not based on population so it allows for smaller members to have a greater voice.
Autocratic democracy is an over used term. To be honest the UK is hardly Democratic. The EU as a body kept us in line making sure we maintained our Democratic principals but since we left the pressure has been piling on regarding core Democratic values of our state
There is also unmitigated chaos in full democracy which has wide spread consequences. So a balance between democracy and Autocratic administrative principals is the most effective way of governance
@@DP-ic2lz if you think it’s fairly democratic you have no idea what you are talking about
Well done Croatia, being part of the largest and most successful trade block in the world is going to bring huge benefits, as you and the EU move forward to greater economic and social advancement the UK is moving in the opposite direction becoming more isolated and poorer
well, its not the largest or most successful trading bloc in the world and its standing is dropping.
The UK is moving forward and has more trade agreements in place than the EU, so is dealing with the world where the EU is becoming more and more insular.

ONLY NOW??? I already tried to book something in Croatia a couple of years ago, and it was in EURO.
Probably because most of their turists come from the Schengen area and the euro is/was a valuable currency for croatians

It's the same along the Finnish - Swedish border, all shops accept both euro and the swedish krona.

Love kuna and pay with it all my life and having independent fixed rate currency have lots of benefits but in history every big transaction like import or export or buying house was done in De marks or in later years in Euros so its logical conclusion to cut off middle man and make everything simple and hopefully better...
Well done, and. I have wondering if you can still exchange the original Croatian currency the Kuna for the new one or otherwise if it expires due to Eurozone conversion deadline. convert it to Non EuroZone currency, something like US Dollars using the current rate of 7.53540 HRK = €1 = $1.07 as of 2 January 2023 UK Time 00:48 January 1st 2023 7:48 pm EST
Payments can be made in both currencies during the first two weeks of January 2023 (with change being given in euro) and after then only in euro. Kuna coins can be exchanged by the Croatian National Bank for three years following the changeover, while it will be possible to exchange kuna notes indefinitely.

With the Euro, Croatia will absorb all the inflation resulting from the monetary expansion that the EU does without any mechanism to control it, the cost of living will rise to the level of other countries with the same currency, but it does not mean that salaries will also rise, most likely not. The best thing to lower inflation is to lower fiscal spending, lower taxes, facilitate investment and business creation, not having a central bank or having an autonomous one that does not allow politicians to carry out monetary expansion practices as was the case in Chile, but the EU does the opposite.
Eurozone 2022: 8,4 % Inflation
Croatia 2022( Kuna): > 10% < 11 %
Hungary 2022 (Forint) > 14,53 % Inflation.
Slovenia 2022( Euro) > 8,82% Inflation
Spain 2022 ( Euro)> 8,32 % Inflation
Why was Kuna Inflation and Forint Inflation higher?
How depressing it is to see Croatia going forward and the UK or to give it its new name, Brexitland, resolutely determined to go backwards. What will the Brexiteers aim for in 2023, reforming the commonwealth? Good luck to Croatia and to all who sail in her.
@@benbeasant3443 Ye cause Greece was doing just fine before they joined and their crisis was clearly just the € fault and had nothing to do with them cooking the books.
Diddums. Still whingeing about brexit 🙄
@@Christian-ut5umenjoy your wealth then. Oh and please start feeding your kids when you send them to school, with all those riches you have that shouldn’t be an issue, right?
@@Christian-ut5um escape? Falling down the stairs you mean.
@@Christian-ut5um yep, sounds good. We’ll take Scotland too and in time NI will want to join or unite with Ireland. I hear Wales has been shit on by England for centuries, maybe they can consider candidacy and put it to a vote as well.
Good for you, Croatia!
note: anybody noticed how there's no mention about this in the Telegraph? Just let your most brexity friends know...
Agree on all! Let's hope UK rejoin EU soon!
Warm greetings from Croatia!
It's bad news that Croatia will lose the sovereignty of their currency, now with the Euro, they will have no way to control inflation since they will depend on the economic decisions of the EU, for example. Every time The EU decide to print money, inflation will rise, and the cost of living will also rise. It's unfortunate, I think it's a very bad idea to leave the Kuna behind.
❤❤❤
It will be easier to visit Croatia from neighboring countries. Speaking of which a new highway connection is being built with Hungary. It will open early next year.
And what do They bring in the table?
sunshine and beaches.
Rainbow houses
Ties.
an industry thats weakened and partially sold to western European competitors. Also cheap labour.
Adriatic, tourisam, Croatia has 1 mil. Ha of uncultivated land, Croatia has decent gas reservs, show the path to other west Balkan countries that it can be done...
As a European in the EU, welcome to the family Croatia!
Thank you very much for your great words!
Kind regards from Croatia!
That's them now trapped.
Mens sana in corpore sano, Healthy economy trough less risk money , its like vaccination to prevent financial risk and hope of economic growth as part of Eurozone countrys
Only thing I dont like about a common currency is how one country can potentially tank the value of it like Greece
RIP Croatia.
Don’t you mean RIP….the ununited Kingdom……soon to lose both Scotland and Northern Ireland ,half its businesses and ALL the intelligent people who can afford to move ?
@@mikehutchison4892 how have Italy Spain Portugal and Greece performed under the euro? It been a disaster for those countries
“The measure of intelligence is the ability to change.”― Albert Einstein
plenty of brexiters now acknowledge leaving the EU was a mistake.
And since MPs in Parliament had the final say they can reverse their decision
and stop blaming their decision on the public.
The entire tory cabinet has been chosen for its religious adherence to brexitology.
What about their rampant gun problem and their mismanagement of gun manufacturers
Congrats from Macedonia
Hvala ♥️

@@WilliamTheRage you're dumb, log off
Congratulations Croatia! I feel like Croatia's tourism industry is going to boom in the following years now; who in the Schengen Area wouldn't want to visit Plitvice Falls or Split now that the border's completely open?
0:43 shes gorgeous.
The new coin design look shit. I liked the bear, tuna, and kuna. This is what happens when you don't let the population vote on the design.
And if you are wondering yes I'm Croatian.
Your opinion
I honestly can’t tell if people in the EU all have strange/random but similar usernames and take an interest in the BBC, or if this comment section has been flooded by pro-EU bots 🧐
Another sovereign currency disappears and just like Italy, Greece, Spain and Ireland unemployment and poverty will soon follow like never before.
It is more stable currency. You risk ending up like Turkey having your own currency.
Its far from stable. Its just keeping its head above the US$ (in fact it dipped below the US$ not so long ago). The EU are apparently printing Euros like mad at the moment which will end in disaster
Well done croatia
Easier doesn't mean better.
Yes
I'am

The report is a little misleading. It's not an instant transition, as far as I understand kuna will still be accepted for a few weeks, and people will have the whole year to exchange their kuna into euros. But as someone from the United States who adores Europe's concept of unity between nations, I am proud of Croatia for participating in the European project and Europe for conceiving it. May today be a step closer to a European Federation.
Kuna can still be used as a currency for 2 weeks. From 15 January, Euro will be the only accepted currency.
Thank you very much for your great comment! Yes, it's great EU concept that is bringing people together!
Greetings from sunny and thrilled Croatia! 🇭🇷🇭🇷🇭🇷♥♥♥♥🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇪🇺🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It's about time the UK reentered to EU.
Leaving was a mistake
and perpetuating that mistake is insanity.
Nonsense.
@@mielerodriguez5678 Yes leaving the EU
and all the excuses for leaving the EU were indeed nonsense.
please activate the subtitle, we don't know English!
Irony.
Well you better learn it then
Speak for yourself pal! Majority of Croats speak and understand English perfectly!
So, how about to try learn it? It's never late to learn something new!
