Law/Patents - Law (general) / Croatian legislation
Croatian term or phrase: Zakon o doprinosima za obvezna osiguranja
Službeni engleski prijevod naziva ovog zakona ne nalazim, ali sam pogledala u tekst i našla da obuhvaća mirovinsko osiguranje na temelju generacijske solidarnosti, mirovinsko osiguranje na temelju individualne kapitalizirane štednje, zdravstveno osiguranje i osiguranje za slučaj nezaposlenosti.

Neslužbenih prijevoda za 'obvezna' ima svakakvih: compulsory, obligatory, mandatory... Meni nekako najbolje sjeda 'statutory'.
Hvala unaprijed na prijedlozima.

Law on statutory insurance contributions
Explanation:
Also didn't find any official translation. Would agree with your instincts on statutory since it tends to be used with regards obligations arising from the law (i.e. statutes). I would avoid 'Law/Act on contributions for statutory insurances' since for some reason insurance isn't generally used in the plural rather as a collective noun.
