Post

Sending letters or postcards to an address abroad is a standard process and can only be done in the post office. Post offices can be found in every city in Bosnia and Herzegovina and most towns as well. Stamps need to be purchased at the post office as well. Packages are a bit more time-consuming but there are express services available at the post office as well as from DHL, FEDEX, and UPS.

- Phoning from Bosnia and Herzegovina: 00 – country code – city code without the 0 - number.

Phoning from hotels is often expensive. Check the prices before you chat away. Phone booths – you will find them at the bus stations and post offices – are a lot cheaper. The phones do not accept coins. 10 KM and 20 KM cards can be bought from the post office or at the small newspaper kiosks.
Beware: different phone companies provide their services in different parts of the country and your phone cards may not be valid once you leave the town you bought them in. In all cases, it is cheaper to phone after 19.00. Mobile phones.
