Sažetak

The paper deals with the EEC legal regime and discuses whether Croatia should declare one. In order to provide comprehensive understanding of the relevant issues, the
paper fi rstly analyses the legal institute of the EEC and gives an overview of all relevant characteristics thereof, as set forth in the third United Nations’ Convention on the Law of
the Sea (UNCLOS). Then it presents some of the questions arising from the process of the declaration and delimitation of the EEC by reviewing the most relevant case law on
this matter. The Republic of Croatia has incorporated all the up to date provisions in its Maritime Code relative to the EEC. However, it decided to proclaim an Ecological-Fishery
Zone with only some of the sovereign rights which a state is entitled to exercise in the EEC according to UNCLOS. Subsequently, it suspended this Zone thus making the protection of Croatian maritime resources dubious.
