Currency regulations (same for import and export):

One Euro is approximately equivalent to HRK 7.60. Money can be easily exchanged at banks and exchange offices, travel agencies, post offices, hotels and airports. Most major currencies are exchangeable EXCEPT Hungarian forints which you can't change in Croatia. Also, bear in mind that the Croatian kuna is not exchangeable outside Croatia.
