Bosnia and Herzegovina pension documentation requirements

Overview

Pension and disability insurance authorities in Bosnia and Herzegovina have issued various notices regarding mandatory documentation required to maintain benefit payments.

The Pension and Disability Insurance Fund (Fond PIO) warned family pension recipients that they must submit school enrollment certificates for the 2026/2027 school year to avoid payment suspension. Deadlines for these submissions are set for September 24, 2026, for students aged 15 to 19, and October 24, 2026, for students aged 19 to 26.

Separately, the Federal Institute for Pension and Disability Insurance (PIO/MIO) announced requirements for 2027 ‘proof of life’ documents. To prevent the suspension of disbursements, eligible users must submit certified official forms between November 1 and December 31, 2026. These documents can be certified by various local or international authorities and must be sent by mail to the Mostar or Sarajevo offices.
