The European Commission has given a positive assessment of Croatia’s National Medium-Term Fiscal-Structural Plan (2025-2028) and its draft budget for 2025. Announced during the Commission’s final session in Strasbourg, the evaluation highlights Croatia’s compliance with the EU’s new fiscal framework.

Croatia was one of eight eurozone countries praised for meeting fiscal recommendations, with plans ensuring public debt remains below 60% of GDP. The Commission acknowledged Croatia’s prudent fiscal direction, noting a budget deficit under 3% of GDP and steady debt reduction goals.

The National Plan focuses on fiscal adjustments, reform policies, and investments. Member states must report annually on its implementation, aiming to ensure long-term economic stability.
