Bosnia and Herzegovina

Moderate

54/100

Bosnia and Herzegovina combines material civic and online constraints with a mixed or restrictive lived-experience climate. The digital axis uses Freedom in the World 2026 as a disclosed civic-freedom proxy; local conditions can still vary by city and identity.

Higher numbers mean greater documented traveller exposure. This is a planning signal, not a promise of safety.

Atlas city guides

Local context can change the plan.

QARI remains a country baseline. These guides add local route and community context; they do not overwrite national legal or enforcement conditions.

Questions and limits

What does QARI say about Bosnia and Herzegovina?

QARI records a moderate country-level baseline of 54 out of 100. Higher numbers mean greater documented exposure, not a personal-safety verdict.

How is this score built?

The published score combines legal risk (35%), social reality (40%), and digital and enforcement risk (25%). A documented risk floor can raise, but never lower, the result.

Can this score describe every city or traveller?

No. National averages can conceal local variation. Use the linked city guides and current local or official advice alongside this baseline.
