The Croatian Parliament electoral districts have been in place since the Law on Electoral Districts of 1999.^[1]

Geographic electoral districts (1-10)

Croatia has 12 electoral districts. Ten of these are geographical districts within Croatia, each providing 14 members of parliament. District XI is for Croatian citizens living abroad, with a maximum 12 members of parliament. District XII is for national minorities, providing 8 members of parliament.^[1]

These districts have been used in three elections thus far: 2000, 2003, 2007.

In 2010, the Constitutional Court of Croatia ruled that an update to the electoral district layout is necessary.^[2]
