Bosnia and Herzegovina VAT Rates

The standard PDV rate in Bosnia and Herzegovina is 17%. The European Commission publishes its dated rate series for the EU-27 only, so there is no rate history to show here – the rates below are the current ones, maintained against national sources.

Company and Tax Identifiers in Bosnia and Herzegovina

What the registrar, the register and each identifier are called, in every official language and in English. These are names, not numbers.

Company registrar: Croatian: registarski sud
English: registration court
Company register: Croatian: sudski registar poslovnih subjekata
English: court register of business entities
Register number: Croatian: matični broj subjekta upisa
English: registration number of the registered entity
Tax ID: Bosnian: jedinstveni identifikacioni broj
English: unique identification number
VAT ID: Bosnian: identifikacioni broj obveznika indirektnih poreza
English: indirect taxpayer identification number

Each name is checked against the registrar’s or tax authority’s own pages or legal text. The same names ship in eu-vat-rates-data.json and in GET /v1/rates.

Where This Data Comes From

The Commission databases behind the rest of this dataset cover the EU-27, so Bosnia and Herzegovina is absent from them. These rates are maintained against the national tax authority when official changes are published.

Current rates for all 45 VAT jurisdictions are one JSON file, MIT licensed, no API key: eu-vat-rates-data.json. Dataset version 11 Oct 2026; for non-EU entries this is not a claim that the national rate changed or was re-verified on that date.

No dated rate history is published for Bosnia and Herzegovina. Rate history covers the EU-27, where the Commission publishes a dated series – see Germany VAT rates for what that looks like. For Bosnian filings, confirm with the tax authority or an adviser.

The update scripts, source data, and audit trail are public in the canonical GitHub repository. If this dataset is useful in your project, a star helps other developers find it.
