FBiH household rješenje plus Canton boravišna taksa (3 KM overnight for 2025) and the state 12-hour eStranac clock make completed foreign-guest data essential before keys go out.
Local focus
- eStranac ≤ 12h
- Canton tax 3 KM
- FBiH rješenje
Country context
Zakon o strancima BiH requires accommodation providers to report foreign guests within 12 hours (eStranac) — on top of entity hospitality licensing (FBiH rješenje / RS categorisation) and canton- or city-set boravišna taksa. BiH is an EU candidate, not EU/Schengen.
Remote arrival works when foreign-guest identity data for the 12-hour eStranac / knjiga stranaca report is complete before access is released — a door code is not a substitute for that filing.
