Croatia bluefin tuna rules: a special licence, not a season invented here

Bluefin tuna is a rules question before it is a fishing question. This page does not invent a season or a weight.

The Croatia licence materials already cite NN 48/2026. The same official table is the one to read: ribarstvo.mps.hr and gov.hr. The recreational ticket article is the 2026 licence post. Keep and size publishing lives on Adriatic bag and size limits.

The special licence

NN 48/2026 is the ordinance the licence post already names. A special big-game licence is part of that table. This page will not copy a month, a kilo, or a euro amount from memory. Open the gazette and the ministry page for the row that applies to your trip.

What this chart will not do

AlgoCatch does not sell the special licence and does not draw a bluefin season. A habitat score is habitat suitability, not a fish count. Do not treat a pelagic overlay as permission.
