Bosnia and Herzegovina
Travel Guide
ENTRY/EXIT REQUIREMENTS: A passport is required
for travel to Bosnia and Herzegovina. American citizens do not require a
visa for tourist stays up to three months. Unless the traveler is staying
at a hotel, all foreigners must register with the local police within 24
hours of arrival. U.S. citizens planning to remain in Bosnia and
Herzegovina for more than three months must obtain a visa prior to travel,
or apply for a temporary residence permit from the local police station
having jurisdiction over their place of residence. A residence permit costs
$50 dollars for a period of three to twelve months. For additional
information concerning longer stays, employments, and other types of visas,
please contact the Embassy of Bosnia and Herzegovina, at 2109 E. Street,
N.W., Washington, DC 20037, telephone 202-337-6473. Visit the Embassy of
Bosnia and Herzegovina web site at
http://www.bhembassy.org/ for the most current visa information.

MEDICAL FACILITIES AND HEALTH INFORMATION: Prior
to the war 1992-1995, hospitals in Sarajevo were the leading educational,
diagnostic, and therapeutic institutions of Bosnia-Herzegovina and
throughout much of Eastern Europe. During the war they were targeted and
suffered major destruction. Although the medical infrastructure is being
rebuilt, many deficits still exist. The lack of adequate medical
facilities, especially outside Sarajevo, may cause problems for visitors.
Because many medicines are not obtainable, travelers should bring their own
supply of prescription drugs and preventive medicines. Private
practitioners and dentists are becoming more common; however, quality of
care varies and rarely meets U.S. or western European standards. All major
surgery is performed in public hospitals.
Information on vaccinations and other health precautions, such as safe
food and water precautions and insect bite protection, may be obtained from
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s hotline for international
travelers at 1-877-FYI-TRIP (1-877-394-8747)

MEDICAL INSURANCE: The Department of State strongly
urges Americans to consult with their medical insurance company prior to
traveling abroad to confirm whether their policy applies overseas and
whether it will cover emergency expenses such as a medical evacuation.
REGISTRATION / EMBASSY LOCATION: Americans living
or traveling in Bosnia and Herzegovina are encouraged to register with the
nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate through the
State Department’s travel
registration website and to obtain updated information on travel and
security within Bosnia and Herzegovina. Americans without Internet access
may register directly with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate. By
registering, American citizens make it easier for the Embassy or Consulate
to contact them in case of emergency. The U.S. Embassy is located at
Alipasina 43, telephone (387)(33) 445-700, fax: (387)(33) 221-837; Internet
address http://www.usembassy.ba. On
weekends, holidays, and after hours, an Embassy duty officer can be reached
at telephone (387)(33) 445-700. If after dialing you receive a recorded
message, press “0,” and then ask for the duty officer.
