“Not assessed” means there is no recorded score. Pair existence makes no claim about diplomatic recognition or established relations.
Relationship context
Overview
Croatia and Estonia maintain a cooperative but relatively low-profile bilateral relationship. A bilateral tax treaty provides a concrete framework for fiscal cooperation. Their shared participation in European and transatlantic institutions is part of the wider context, but does not by itself establish the depth of bilateral government cooperation.
Key developments
Croatia and Estonia concluded a bilateral agreement on the avoidance of double taxation and prevention of fiscal evasion.
Major uncertainties
- The scope of practical cooperation under the bilateral tax treaty is unclear.
- Details of other bilateral government agreements and their implementation are limited.
