Fuel Policy: Choose the fuel policy that best suits your needs. Some companies offer a full-to-full policy where you return the car with a full tank of gas, while others may charge you for a full tank of fuel upfront and expect you to return it empty. Full policy is usually good option because fuel prices often change in Croatia.

Drive Responsibly: Avoid speeding tickets and other traffic violations, as these can result in fines or additional charges from the rental company.
