Visa requirements for Bosnia and Herzegovina citizens

Visa requirements for Bosnia and Herzegovina citizens are administrative entry restrictions by the authorities of other states placed on citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina. As of 5 September 2023, Bosnia and Herzegovina citizens had visa-free or visa on arrival access to 118 countries and territories, ranking the Bosnia and Herzegovina passport 51th place overall, according to the Henley Passport Index.[1]

A Bosnia and Herzegovina Passport

In 2016, the Bosnia and Herzegovina passport was declared one of the five passports with the most improved rating since 2006.[2]

Recent edit

On 3 August 2016 Bosnia and Herzegovina and Morocco signed an agreement to abolish visa requirements for the holders of diplomatic passports for period of 90 days.[3] Belarus introduced 5 days visa-free access to Bosnian citizens from 12 February 2017 if they arrive via Minsk International Airport, later expanded to 30 days.[4][5] Lesotho introduced an e-Visa system on 1 May 2017 for Bosnian citizens.[6] Qatar introduced an e-Visa system on 23 June 2017 for Bosnian citizens.

In March 2018, Colombia abolished visa requirements for Bosnian citizens.[7] A visa-free agreement was signed with China on 28 November 2017 and it entered into force on 29 May 2018.[8] E-visa available for Taiwan starting from 20 November 2019. As of 3 November 2022, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Kosovo formally signed an agreement abolishing visas. Argentina abolished visa requirements for the holders of ordinary Bosnian passport on the 5 September 2023.

Non-visa restrictions edit

Many countries have entry restrictions on foreigners that go beyond the common requirement of having either a valid visa or a visa exemption. Such restrictions may be health related or impose additional documentation requirements on certain classes of people for diplomatic or political purposes.

Blank passport pages edit

Many countries require a minimum number of blank pages to be available in the passport being presented, typically one or two pages.[239] Endorsement pages, which often appear after the visa pages, are not counted as being valid or available.

Vaccination edit

 
Cover of the new International Certificate of Vaccination issued by the Bureau of Quarantine in the Philippines since 2021

Many African countries, including Angola, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Republic of the Congo, Côte d'Ivoire, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Liberia, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Sierra Leone and Togo, South Sudan, Uganda, and Zambia, require all incoming passengers older than nine months to one year[240] to have a current International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis, as does the South American territory of French Guiana.[241]

Some other countries require vaccination only if the passenger is coming from an infected area or has visited one recently or has transited for 12 hours in those countries: Algeria, Botswana, Cabo Verde, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Eswatini, Ethiopia, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Lesotho, Libya, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Papua New Guinea, Seychelles, Somalia, South Africa, Sudan, Tunisia, Uganda, United Republic of Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe.[242][243]

An increasing number of countries have been imposing additional COVID-19 related health restrictions such as quarantine measures and testing requirements. Many countries increasingly consider the vaccination status of travellers with regard to quarantine requirements or when deciding to allow them entry at all.[244]

Passport validity length edit

Very few countries, such as Paraguay, just require a valid passport on arrival.

However many countries and groupings now require only an identity card – especially from their neighbours. Other countries may have special bilateral arrangements that depart from the generality of their passport validity length policies to shorten the period of passport validity required for each other's citizens[245][246] or even accept passports that have already expired (but not been cancelled).[247]

Some countries, such as Japan,[248] Ireland and the United Kingdom,[249] require a passport valid throughout the period of the intended stay.

In the absence of specific bilateral agreements, countries requiring passports to be valid for at least 6 more months on arrival include Afghanistan, Algeria, Anguilla, Bahrain,[250] Bhutan, Botswana, British Virgin Islands, Brunei, Cambodia, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Cayman Islands, Central African Republic, Chad, Comoros, Costa Rica, Côte d'Ivoire, Curaçao, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Fiji, Gabon, Guinea Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Israel,[251] Jordan, Kenya, Kiribati, Kuwait, Laos, Madagascar, Malaysia, Marshall Islands, Mongolia, Myanmar, Namibia, Nepal, Nicaragua, Nigeria, Oman, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Peru,[252] Philippines,[253] Qatar, Rwanda, Samoa, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Solomon Islands, Somalia, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Suriname, Tanzania, Thailand, Timor-Leste, Tokelau, Tonga, Turkey, Tuvalu, Uganda, United Arab Emirates, Vanuatu, Venezuela, and Vietnam.[254]

Countries requiring passports valid for at least 4 months on arrival include Micronesia and Zambia.

Countries requiring passports with a validity of at least 3 months beyond the date of intended departure include Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Honduras, Montenegro, Nauru, Moldova and New Zealand. Similarly, the EEA countries of Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, all European Union countries (except the Republic of Ireland) together with Switzerland also require 3 months validity beyond the date of the bearer's intended departure unless the bearer is an EEA or Swiss national.

Countries requiring passports valid for at least 3 months on arrival include Albania, North Macedonia, Panama, and Senegal.

Bermuda requires passports to be valid for at least 45 days upon entry.

Countries that require a passport validity of at least one month beyond the date of intended departure include Eritrea, Hong Kong, Lebanon, Macau, the Maldives[255] and South Africa.

Criminal record edit

Some countries, including Australia, Canada, Fiji, New Zealand and the United States,[256] routinely deny entry to non-citizens who have a criminal record while others impose restrictions depending on the type of conviction and the length of the sentence.

Persona non grata edit

 
Entry Permit to Nagorno-Karabakh issued in Yerevan as a stand-alone document rather than a visa affixed in a passport

The government of a country can declare a diplomat persona non grata, banning entry into that country. In non-diplomatic use, the authorities of a country may also declare a foreigner persona non grata permanently or temporarily, usually because of unlawful activity.[257]

For example, Azerbaijan bans visits by foreign citizens that have previously entered Azerbaijan through non-Azerbaijani controlled borders. This includes the illegal entry into the separatist region of Nagorno-Karabakh[258] (the de facto independent Republic of Artsakh), its surrounding Armenian-occupied territories, and the Azerbaijani exclaves of Karki, Yuxarı Əskipara, Barxudarlı, and Sofulu which are de jure part of Azerbaijan but under the control of Armenia. Foreign citizens who enter these territories will be permanently banned from entering the Republic of Azerbaijan[259] and will be included in their "list of personae non gratae".[260] As of 2 September 2019, the list mentioned 852 people.

Israeli stamps edit

 
Israeli border control Entry Permit (issued as a stand-alone document rather than a stamp affixed in a passport)

Kuwait,[261] Lebanon,[262] Libya,[263] Syria,[264] and Yemen[265] do not allow entry to people with passport stamps from Israel or whose passports have either a used or an unused Israeli visa, or where there is evidence of previous travel to Israel such as entry or exit stamps from neighbouring border posts in transit countries such as Jordan and Egypt.

To circumvent this Arab League boycott of Israel, the Israeli immigration services have now mostly ceased to stamp foreign nationals' passports on either entry to or exit from Israel (unless the entry is for some work-related purposes). Since 15 January 2013, Israel no longer stamps foreign passports at Ben Gurion Airport. Passports are still (as of 22 June 2017) stamped at Erez when passing into and out of Gaza.[citation needed]

Iran refuses admission to holders of passports containing an Israeli visa or stamp that is less than 12 months old.

Biometrics edit

Several countries mandate that all travellers, or all foreign travellers, be fingerprinted on arrival and will refuse admission to or even arrest travellers who refuse to comply. In some countries, such as the United States, this may apply even to transit passengers who merely wish to change planes rather than go landside.[266]

Fingerprinting countries/regions include Afghanistan,[267][268] Argentina,[269] Brunei, Cambodia,[270] China,[271] Ethiopia,[272] Ghana, Guinea,[273] India, Japan,[274][275] Kenya (both fingerprints and a photo are taken),[276] Malaysia upon entry and departure,[277] Mongolia, Paraguay, Saudi Arabia,[278] Singapore, South Korea,[279] Taiwan, Thailand,[280] Uganda,[281] the United Arab Emirates and the United States.

Many countries also require a photo be taken of people entering the country. The United States, which does not fully implement exit control formalities at its land frontiers (although long mandated by domestic legislation),[282][283][284] intends to implement facial recognition for passengers departing from international airports to identify people who overstay their visa.[285]

Together with fingerprint and face recognition, iris scanning is one of three biometric identification technologies internationally standardised since 2006 by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) for use in e-passports[286] and the United Arab Emirates conducts iris scanning on visitors who need to apply for a visa.[287][288]

Travellers heading west from the UK to New Zealand may soon be able to avoid the onerous requirement to clear US border control during the refuelling stop at Los Angeles airport (LAX). Unlike almost every other country in the world, the US insists on a full immigration check even for passengers who simply intend to re-board their plane to continue onwards to a foreign destination. Air New Zealand, which flies daily from Heathrow via Los Angeles to Auckland, says there are currently "strict requirements for travellers" in transit at LAX. Through passengers to Auckland on flight NZ1 or Heathrow on NZ2 must apply in advance for an ESTA (online visa) even though they have no intention of staying in the US.

While a requirement for a biometric entry-exit system has been in law for over a decade, it is not yet a reality. Many reasons for the long gestating development have been documented in BPC's 2014 report Entry-Exit System: Progress, Challenges, and Outlook, including the technological, operational, and cost challenges of creating exit systems and infrastructure where none exist today. However, many critics, especially in Congress, simply accused the Department of Homeland security of dragging its feet... the major operational, logistical, and technical challenge in implementing exit capability at our ports has been the land borders. Unlike airports and seaports, the land border environment is not physically controlled, there is no means to get advance information on who is arriving, and the sheer volume of travel—both vehicular and pedestrian—creates challenges in any system to not further exacerbate delays. While biometric exit for land vehicular traffic is still in the "what if" stage, CBP is moving ahead and piloting systems and technology to use with the large population of pedestrian crossers at the U.S.-Mexico border.

The breach of privacy is probably the biggest threat to the biometric technique of iris recognition. Secondly, a device error can false reject or false accept the identity which can also have some heinous consequences. Lastly, the method isn't the most cost-effective one. It is complex and therefore expensive. Furthermore, the maintenance of devices and data can also be relatively burdensome. However, thanks to the oil money and spending ability of Dubai, they are economically equipped to effectively embrace this system.

Many countries have entry restrictions on foreigners that go beyond the common requirement of having either a valid visa or a visa exemption Such restrictions may be health related or impose additional documentation requirements on certain classes of people for diplomatic or political purposes Blank passport pages edit Many countries require a minimum number of blank pages to be available in the passport being presented typically one or two pages 239 Endorsement pages which often appear after the visa pages are not counted as being valid or available Vaccination edit Main articles Vaccination requirements for international travel International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis and Vaccine passports during the COVID 19 pandemic nbsp Cover of the new International Certificate of Vaccination issued by the Bureau of Quarantine in the Philippines since 2021Many African countries including Angola Benin Burkina Faso Burundi Cameroon Central African Republic Chad Democratic Republic of the Congo Republic of the Congo Cote d Ivoire Equatorial Guinea Gabon Gambia Ghana Guinea Bissau Kenya Liberia Mali Mauritania Niger Rwanda Senegal Sierra Leone and Togo South Sudan Uganda and Zambia require all incoming passengers older than nine months to one year 240 to have a current International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis as does the South American territory of French Guiana 241 Some other countries require vaccination only if the passenger is coming from an infected area or has visited one recently or has transited for 12 hours in those countries Algeria Botswana Cabo Verde Chad Djibouti Egypt Eswatini Ethiopia Gambia Ghana Guinea Lesotho Libya Equatorial Guinea Eritrea Madagascar Malawi Mauritania Mauritius Mozambique Namibia Nigeria Papua New Guinea Seychelles Somalia South Africa Sudan Tunisia Uganda United Republic of Tanzania Zambia and Zimbabwe 242 243 An increasing number of countries have been imposing additional COVID 19 related health restrictions such as quarantine measures and testing requirements Many countries increasingly consider the vaccination status of travellers with regard to quarantine requirements or when deciding to allow them entry at all 244 Passport validity length edit Very few countries such as Paraguay just require a valid passport on arrival However many countries and groupings now require only an identity card especially from their neighbours Other countries may have special bilateral arrangements that depart from the generality of their passport validity length policies to shorten the period of passport validity required for each other s citizens 245 246 or even accept passports that have already expired but not been cancelled 247 Some countries such as Japan 248 Ireland and the United Kingdom 249 require a passport valid throughout the period of the intended stay In the absence of specific bilateral agreements countries requiring passports to be valid for at least 6 more months on arrival include Afghanistan Algeria Anguilla Bahrain 250 Bhutan Botswana British Virgin Islands Brunei Cambodia Cameroon Cape Verde Cayman Islands Central African Republic Chad Comoros Costa Rica Cote d Ivoire Curacao Ecuador Egypt El Salvador Equatorial Guinea Fiji Gabon Guinea Bissau Guyana Haiti India Indonesia Iran Iraq Israel 251 Jordan Kenya Kiribati

at least 4 months on arrival include Micronesia and Zambia Countries requiring passports with a validity of at least 3 months beyond the date of intended departure include Azerbaijan Bosnia and Herzegovina Honduras Montenegro Nauru Moldova and New Zealand Similarly the EEA countries of Iceland Liechtenstein Norway all European Union countries except the Republic of Ireland together with Switzerland also require 3 months validity beyond the date of the bearer s intended departure unless the bearer is an EEA or Swiss national Countries requiring passports valid for at least 3 months on arrival include Albania North Macedonia Panama and Senegal Bermuda requires passports to be valid for at least 45 days upon entry Countries that require a passport validity of at least one month beyond the date of intended departure include Eritrea Hong Kong Lebanon Macau the Maldives 255 and South Africa Criminal record edit Some countries including Australia Canada Fiji New Zealand and the United States 256 routinely deny entry to non citizens who have a criminal record while others impose restrictions depending on the type of conviction and the length of the sentence Persona non grata edit nbsp Entry Permit to Nagorno Karabakh issued in Yerevan as a stand alone document rather than a visa affixed in a passportThe government of a country can declare a diplomat persona non grata banning entry into that country In non diplomatic use the authorities of a country may also declare a foreigner persona non grata permanently or temporarily usually because of unlawful activity 257 For example Azerbaijan bans visits by foreign citizens that have previously entered Azerbaijan through non Azerbaijani controlled borders This includes the illegal entry into the separatist region of Nagorno Karabakh 258 the de facto independent Republic of Artsakh its surrounding Armenian occupied territories and the Azerbaijani exclaves of Karki Yuxari Eskipara Barxudarli and Sofulu which are de jure part of Azerbaijan but under the control of Armenia Foreign citizens who enter these territories will be permanently banned from entering the Republic of Azerbaijan 259 and will be included in their list of personae non gratae 260 As of 2 September 2019 update the list mentioned 852 people Israeli stamps edit nbsp Israeli border control Entry Permit issued as a stand alone document rather than a stamp affixed in a passport Kuwait 261 Lebanon 262 Libya 263 Syria 264 and Yemen 265 do not allow entry to people with passport stamps from Israel or whose passports have either a used or an unused Israeli visa or where there is evidence of previous travel to Israel such as entry or exit stamps from neighbouring border posts in transit countries such as Jordan and Egypt To circumvent this Arab League boycott of Israel the Israeli immigration services have now mostly ceased to stamp foreign nationals passports on either entry to or exit from Israel unless the entry is for some work related purposes Since 15 January 2013 Israel no longer stamps foreign passports at Ben Gurion Airport Passports are still as of 22 June 2017 update stamped at Erez when passing into and out of Gaza citation needed Iran refuses admission to holders of passports containing an Israeli visa or stamp that is less than 12 months old Biometrics edit See also Countries applying biometrics Several countries mandate that all travellers or all foreign travellers be fingerprinted on arrival and will refuse admission to or even arrest travellers who refuse to comply In some countries such as the United States this may apply even to transit passengers who merely wish to change planes rather than go landside 266 Fingerprinting countries regions include Afghanistan 267 268 Argentina 269 Brunei Cambodia 270 China 271 Ethiopia 272 Ghana Guinea 273 India Japan 274 275 Kenya both fingerprints and a photo are taken 276 Malaysia upon entry and departure 277 Mongolia Paraguay Saudi Arabia 278 Singapore South Korea 279 Taiwan Thailand 280 Uganda 281 the United Arab Emirates and the United States Many countries also require a photo be taken of people entering the country The United States which does not fully implement exit control formalities at its land frontiers although long mandated by domestic legislation 282 283 284 intends to implement facial recognition for passengers departing from international airports to identify people who overstay their visa 285 Together with fingerprint and face recognition iris scanning is one of three biometric identification technologies internationally standardised since 2006 by the International Civil Aviation Organization ICAO for use in e passports 286 and the United Arab Emirates conducts iris scanning on visitors who need to

reasons for the long gestating development have been documented in BPC s 2014 report Entry Exit System Progress Challenges and Outlook including the technological operational and cost challenges of

operational logistical and technical challenge in implementing exit capability at our ports has been the land borders Unlike airports and seaports the land border environment is not physically controlled there is no means to get advance information on who is arriving and the sheer volume of travel both vehicular and pedestrian creates challenges in any system to not further exacerbate
