Can I apply for political asylum in Bosnia and Herzegovina?

In Bosnia and Herzegovina, political asylum is handled by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). In accordance with international law and the legal provisions of Bosnia and Herzegovina, political asylum provides protection to those who face persecution because of their personal political activities or specific political beliefs.

If you think you meet the requirements for political asylum, you can submit an application for political asylum to the local Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). After submitting your application for political asylum, UNHCR will evaluate your application and decide whether to grant political asylum in accordance with relevant laws and international standards.

Please note that the approval process for political asylum applications takes time and the results are not always successful. In addition, the conditions and procedures for political asylum may change due to changes in national policies. It is recommended that you consult your local immigration office or a professional immigration lawyer before applying to obtain the latest and detailed information.
