In Šibenik, Croatia, two hospitality businesses were temporarily closed during the recent tourist season due to inspections by the Tax Administration. One was shut down for having €4.30 more in the cash register than reported, while another was fined for serving drinks outside operating hours without issuing receipts, which occurred during the World Cup. Davor Perković, owner of the closed café 'Moby Dick,' described how inspectors arrived at 1:22 AM after the café had already closed, ordered drinks, and then confiscated his tax identification. He explained that he had instructed staff to close earlier but did not expect the inspection.

Perković expressed frustration over being held responsible for issues beyond his control and emphasized the challenges of managing a business with seasonal fluctuations.
