The Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction came into force between the United States and Bosnia and Herzegovina on March 6, 1992. For in-depth information on the workings of the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction, visit the Department of State’s International Parental Child Abduction Page.

Child Custody Lawyers:

The Embassy maintains a list of lawyers here in Bosnia and Herzegovina, some of whom may have experience in cases involving International Child Abduction. The Embassy does not evaluate these lawyers individually – we encourage you to research a lawyer’s experience before hiring them to represent you.

The Embassy is unaware of NGOs in BiH that specifically work on International Child Abduction cases.
