Chemicals regulation in Bosnia and Herzegovina is split between the Federation of BiH and Republika Srpska, and both are moving toward REACH and CLP. Importers should confirm registration and labelling rules with the relevant entity authority and prepare a local-language SDS. Medicines and APIs are regulated at state level by ALMBIH in Banja Luka, which expects GMP evidence. Precursors need import permits. Sea cargo is usually cleared after transit from Ploče in Croatia, and dangerous goods follow IMDG or IATA.
