Bosnia and Herzegovina travel money:

What is Bosnia’s official currency?

The main currency is the Bosnia and Herzegovina convertible mark (BAM).

What is the 2 code for Bosnia and Herzegovina?

The two-letter country code is BA. 

The Bosnia currency symbol is KM, and the ISO code for the Bosnia convertible mark is BAM.  

Where can I exchange Bosnian marks?

The Bosnian mark (BAM) is a minor currency. So, it’ll be challenging to find at local banks and exchange offices.

We offer fantastic exchange rates when you convert GBP to BAM. Plus, you get the convenience of having your Bosnian marks delivered to your doorstep and avoid high airport fees.

If you prefer a more personal touch, drop by our Manor FX bureau near Heathrow. Rest assured, you’ll still enjoy those fantastic rates when you visit us to convert British pounds to Bosnia convertible marks.   

If you return with leftover travel money, we’ll help you convert your Bosnian marks to pounds.

Does Bosnia use the euro?

No, it uses the Bosnian convertible mark (BAM) as its official currency. 

However, euros are widely accepted in some tourist areas, hotels, and larger businesses, but change is usually given in BAM.

Can I use my bank card in Bosnia and Herzegovina?

You can most certainly use your bank card. International debit and credit cards, such as Visa and Mastercard, are accepted in Sarajevo, Mostar, and other Bosnian cities.

While cards are widely accepted, cash is preferred in more remote or rural areas. Having a small amount of local currency on hand is always a good idea for those situations.

Helpful tip: Before using your card in Bosnia, contact your bank to avoid any unnecessary stress.

Should I use cash in Bosnia and Herzegovina?

Yes. Cash is king in Bosnia. Some vendors in more rural areas may be unable to accept international card payments.

Taxi drivers, street vendors, and tour guides often only accept Bosnian money. So, it’s a good idea to have some Bosnian convertible marks (BAM) on hand. 

In larger cities and tourist areas, cards are widely accepted. However, having a bit of local currency ensures you’re ready for any scenario!

Helpful tip: Smaller banknotes and coins are useful for tipping in Bosnia.

Is it better to use cash or credit card in Bosnia and Herzegovina?

Both cash and credit cards have their advantages. 

Paying in Bosnian convertible marks is convenient, especially in smaller towns or local markets where card acceptance might be limited.

However, credit cards are widely accepted in larger cities and tourist areas. Having a mix of cash and a credit card can give you the best of both worlds. 

How can I avoid ATM fees in Bosnia and Herzegovina?  

To avoid ATM fees, consider using ATMs from local banks, such as Raiffeisen Bank or UniCredit, as they may offer lower costs. Avoid Euronet ATMs, which charge high fees. 

Withdraw larger amounts at once to minimise transaction costs.

How much money should I take to Bosnia and Herzegovina?

When budgeting for Bosnia & Herzegovina, plan according to your travel style:
