Croatian veterans have priority status when renting commercial premises for trade or independent professional activity with state administration and local self-government units and legal entities owned by them

Municipalities, cities, counties, the City of Zagreb and the Republic of Croatia as well as legal entities entirely or predominantly owned by them are required to enter into a lease agreement for commercial premises for trade or independent professional activity with the following persons if they participate in a public tender and meet the requirements of the most favourable quote, in the following order:

  2. a disabled Croatian Homeland War veteran
  3. a Homeland War military volunteer
  4. other Croatian Homeland War veteran, in the order of longer to shorter duration of participation in the defence of the sovereignty of the Republic of Croatia

  6. children of a Croatian Homeland War veteran or
