Direct answer
Short answer for Indian travellers.
Croatia visa timing is an estimate, not a guarantee. Croatia MFA states decisions are generally within 15 days, with longer review possible in some cases. VisaKendra catalogue guidance currently shows 50 to 55 Business Days. Apply with a travel buffer because incomplete documents, holidays, appointments or additional checks can delay a decision.
