What is Laissez Passer?
A Laissez-Passer is a travel document of the Republic of Croatia issued by an embassy or consulate of the Republic of Croatia to Croatian citizens who are residing or find themselves abroad without a travel document (lost, stolen, or inaccessible), for the purpose of returning to Croatia. The spouse and children of the laissez-passer user may use the same laissez-passer if they are also included in the laissez-passer, with respective photographs. The laissez-passer is issued for a period that is necessary for return to Croatia, but not longer than 30 days.
