Jun 28, 2016 at 8:12 comment added phoog @JoErNanO I don't have the energy right now to read the canonical and form an opinion; I also don't know the answer to this question. They are exempt from having to get a visa before traveling to the border, but there seems to be no special exemption from the ATV, which is a bit weird. Leaving this question separate probably gives the best chance of someone who knows the answer seeing it (not that the chance is all that good, I suppose).
Jun 28, 2016 at 8:00 comment added JoErNanO @phoog There's a dedicated exemption section on the linked canonical. Will it really affect it that much if we add a paragraph saying "seafarers are exempt because phoog said so"? Anyhow this is a weird question as you say so I'll retract the close-vote.
Jun 28, 2016 at 7:52 comment added phoog @JoErNanO we can, but that just makes the canonical question longer, more confusing, and harder to digest for the 99.9% of people who don't need to think about commercial shipping. There are enough different cases and exceptions and exemptions as it is. We ought to draw the line somewhere, and this seems to me to be a good place to draw it.
Jun 28, 2016 at 7:44 comment added JoErNanO @phoog Can't we add details about seafarers in the linked canonical dupe?
Jun 28, 2016 at 7:35 comment added phoog @JoErNanO seafarers have special treatment in the visa rules; closing this as a duplicate is not terribly helpful.
Jun 28, 2016 at 7:33 comment added phoog @JonathanReez they can get a visa to enter the Schengen area at the border, without having to get it in advance. Presumably the same is true in Croatia ("...will be stamped after reaching...", depending on the meaning here of "stamp"). But there's no seafarer's exemption for airport transit visas, only an exemption for those holding a valid visa. But the seafarer doesn't have the valid visa because he'll be getting it at the border.

Jun 28, 2016 at 7:30 comment added JonathanReez @phoog seamen are often exempted when traveling directly to their point of embarkation.
Jun 28, 2016 at 5:22 comment added phoog It looks like you need an airport transit visa. There are several documents that would exempt you from that requirement, but if I understand your question correctly, you don't hold any of those documents.
