Longest stay on the tourist visa: Visa-free: 30 days initially; 9(a) visa: up to 59 days per stay; extensions at the BI up to 36 months in total for visa-free nationals.

Measured from Sarajevo, Filipino embassies and consulates are closest in Belgrade, Serbia (197 km), Zagreb, Croatia (287 km) and Ljubljana, Slovenia (388 km). Which post accepts applications from residents of Bosnia and Herzegovina is decided by the Philippines, so confirm it with the mission or the official visa portal before booking an appointment.
