News archive - Illustration Videos on Croatia's accession process

Croatia applied for EU membership in 2003 and was in negotiations from 2005 until 2011. On 9 December 2011 leaders from the EU and Croatia signed the accession treaty.  Subject to its ratification by all EU countries and Croatia, then the country becomes the 28th EU member country today. 

Throughout the interim period until the accession, Croatia as an acceding country has had active observer status in the European Institutions. The purpose was to allow Croatia to become familiar with the working methods of the EU institutions and to be involved in the decision-making process. 

The EC Audiovisual Services have prepared a special page on Croatia, grouping together the Services' audiovisual coverage and covering EU-Croatia relations before this accession.
