Is bitcoin legal in Bosnia and Herzegovina?
Bitcoin is legal to buy, hold and sell in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and no state or entity law restricts an individual from doing so. The convertible mark is the only legal tender, and the Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which takes a cautious line on crypto, warned on 10 December 2019 that a statement circulating online in which the governor urged citizens to invest in cryptocurrency was fabricated. Republika Srpska amended its Law on the Securities Market in 2022 to define virtual currencies and to register service providers with its Securities Commission, which lists two; the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina has no equivalent statute, and the 2024 state law on the prevention of money laundering makes virtual currency service providers obliged entities, which is why every platform verifies identity.
