Keyboard Croatian online

The layout at a glance

This Croatian virtual keyboard mirrors the QWERTZ layout of a physical Croatian keyboard. Its 48 character keys reach the 31 letters of the Latin script (U+0041–U+005A, U+0061–U+007A, U+00C0–U+024F) straight from the browser, with no software to install and no system setting to change.

The layout reaches 6 characters that an ordinary Latin keyboard does not carry: ¨ ć č đ š ž.

How to type in Croatian

  1. Click the on-screen keys or type on your physical keyboard — both write into the same text area.
  2. Shift shows the second layer of every key: capitals and the characters printed at the top right.
  3. The Copy button puts the whole text on the clipboard, ready to paste into an email, a document or a form.
  4. The Google, YouTube and ChatGPT buttons run a search with the text you typed, without retyping it.

Key reference table

Each row is one physical key: the base character, the one produced with Shift, then the one produced with AltGr.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I type Croatian special letters (č, ć, đ, š, ž)?

These letters have dedicated keys on the Croatian QWERTZ keyboard, positioned around the main letter area.

What is the Croatian QWERTZ layout?

It is a QWERTZ layout (Z and Y are swapped) that includes the five Gaj diacritic letters č, ć, đ, š and ž.

How do I type the digraphs dž, lj and nj?

They are normally typed as two separate letters. Single Unicode characters (dž, lj, nj) also exist but are rarely needed.

What is the difference between č and ć?

č is a hard sound (like 'ch' in 'church'), while ć is softer. They are distinct letters that change a word's meaning and spelling.

Can I use this keyboard for Serbian or Bosnian?

Yes. Croatian Latin (Gajica) works for Bosnian and for Serbian written in Latin, although Serbian also commonly uses Cyrillic.

How do I type the letter đ?

The letter đ (d with stroke) has its own dedicated key and is distinct from the plain letter d.
