Splitsko-dalmatinska županija

What Splitsko-dalmatinska županija does

Splitsko-dalmatinska županija (Split-Dalmatia County) is a regional self-government unit of the Republic of Croatia, headquartered in Split at Domovinskog rata 2. It is the largest county in Croatia by population and economic activity, with jurisdiction over the Split metropolitan area, the hinterland including Sinj and Imotski, the Makarska Riviera, and the islands of Hvar, Vis, Brač, and others. The county is governed by an elected County Prefect (Župan), currently Blaženko Boban, supported by two deputies and a 41-member County Assembly.

The county delivers public services through fifteen administrative departments covering health, social care, demographics, education, culture, sports, veterans' affairs, civil protection, environmental protection, communal affairs, infrastructure, tourism, maritime affairs, transport, construction, spatial planning, economy, EU funds, agriculture, finance, IT, and general administration. Service delivery is anchored by twelve-plus registry offices (Pisarnica) distributed across Split, Hvar, Imotski, Kaštela, Makarska, Omiš, Sinj, Solin, Supetar, Trogir, Vis, and Vrgorac. Digital channels include the official portal dalmacija.hr, the E-Pisarnica electronic registry system, and the Digital Dalmacija modernization initiative. The county participates in numerous EU-funded projects across environmental protection, fire safety, sustainable tourism, cultural heritage, water management, and climate adaptation.

The entity is a public legal entity, not a commercial company. It does not earn revenue in the traditional sense; it is funded through Croatian state and municipal budgets, EU grants, and its own taxation authority. In 2025 it adopted what it described as the largest budget in its history. It is a member of the Croatian Association of Counties and partners with central ministries, Port Authority Split, and international institutions on infrastructure and development projects. The RAZUMIN Center, established in 2021, is positioned as a regional hub for artificial intelligence development and emigrant repatriation, though no AI product, model, or research output is publicly disclosed.

• Osječko-baranjska županija (Osijek-Baranja County): Larger inland Croatian county that provides the same regional self-government functions under the same legal framework; useful comparator for non-coastal dimensions of the županija mandate.

• Dubrovačko-neretvanska županija (Dubrovnik-Neretva County): Southern Croatian coastal county with comparable tourism, maritime, and island governance profile, including EU-funded heritage and environmental projects.
• Ličko-senjska županija (Lika-Senj County): Mountainous and coastal Croatian county with mixed rural/island geography; a directly comparable županija-level administration under the same Croatian legal framework.
• Šibensko-kninska županija (Šibenik-Knin County): Adjacent Dalmatian coastal county with shared maritime, tourism, and island characteristics; directly comparable županija governance peer.
• Istarska županija (Istria County): Another large Croatian coastal county with similar tourism-driven economy, EU-funded development programs, and comparable županija governance structure. Most directly comparable in scale and economic profile to Split-Dalmatia County.
• Zagrebačka županija (Zagreb County): Largest Croatian county by population ring around the capital, providing the same županija-tier regional administration functions (health, education, infrastructure, EU funds) under identical Croatian legal framework.
• Primorsko-goranska županija (Primorje-Gorski Kotar County): Croatian Adriatic county covering Rijeka and coastal/island territories with similar administrative structure, tourism economy, and EU project portfolio. Directly comparable regional government peer.
