PORT OF RIJEKA FREE ZONE

ABOUT US
Rijeka Free Zone was founded pursuant to the Resolution of Approval adopted by the Government of the Republic of Croatia on June 19th 1997. It founder and operator is Port of Rijeka Authority (N.N. No. 63/97). The Founding Act was adopted by Port of Rijeka Authority on September 16th 1997.

The Rijeka Port is situated in the northern part of the Adriatic, at the point where the sea reaches deep into the continent.

It belongs to the ports of the North Adriatic which traditionally gravitate to Central and Eastern Europe.

However, the greatest advantage of the Rijeka Port over other ports oriented towards the same area (those of the North Sea and the Baltic) is the shortest sea connection of Central Europe to the Mediterranean, and to the Near East and the Far East over the Suez Canal.

Rijeka is a part of the important Tran European Highway Project, which will run from the north to the south, from Sczeczin, through Prague in the Czech Republic, Bratislava in Slovakia, Hungary, Zagreb and Rijeka to Dubrovnik in Croatia, and further to Greece. It is also a part of the Pyhrn Highway Project, which should reach Rijeka from Nuremberg in Germany, through Graz in Austria, Maribor in Slovenia, and Zagreb in Croatia.

The Rijeka-Zagreb-Gorican Road connects Hungary, traditionally oriented towards the Rijeka Port, with Rijeka.

The route towards Austria, Germany, and the Czech Republic runs over the Rupa border crossing, and goes further using Slovenian and Austrian networks.

Rijeka is also a part of the Tran European Railway (TER).
