Foreigner presence and regulations in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Overview

Bosnia and Herzegovina has maintained its financial requirements for foreign visitors, setting the minimum subsistence amount at 150 KM (convertible marks) per day for 2027. This rate, which covers health protection and departure costs, has remained unchanged since 2017 despite rising prices in other sectors.

In the education sector, the country has experienced a 16 percent increase in foreign student enrollment for the 2024/2025 academic year, totaling 6,875 students. While the majority of these students originate from neighboring countries such as Croatia, Serbia, Turkey, and Montenegro, there is growing interest from Asia. Specifically, enrollment from India rose by nearly 44 percent, a trend attributed to the availability of English-language study programs.
