Bosnia and Herzegovina is a signatory to the Hague Convention on the Service Abroad of Judicial and Extrajudicial Documents in Civil or Commercial Matters, 20 UST361. This widely recognized treaty governs service of process across many industrialized nations globally. Courts frequently rule that failing to adhere to the established treaty procedures results in invalid service, underscoring the critical need to utilize the proper channels. While the treaty provides a framework, each foreign country, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, maintains the right to implement reservations, declarations, and notifications. These national stipulations dictate which treaty provisions will be enforced or prohibited, and whether translations are mandatory, including the required languages. These country-specific adjustments effectively allow each sovereign nation to define its own process service requirements under the treaty.
When initiating the discovery phase of your litigation, allow Ancillary to provide expert assistance in obtaining evidence located abroad. When evidence is situated in a foreign jurisdiction, it is essential to observe not only the relevant state or federal rules but also strictly comply with all the laws and regulations of Bosnia and Herzegovina where the evidence resides.
