State Border Service
In line with the Integrated border management strategy and Action Plan, and the obligation to
strengthen the surveillance of the state border, the BiH Border Police signed a number of
agreements and protocols with other agencies (for instance, with the BiH ITA). In cooperation
with the Republic of Croatia, BiH began with the implementation of the project of joint border
patrols. Also, the first joint course was organized for leaders from both border services. As part
of the efforts to strengthen surveillance and control of border crossings, a document titled
„Preliminary specification of software requirements – IT systems for comprehensive control of
persons at border crossings“(a tender for equipment is to be launched during this year) was
developed. There are ongoing activities on the establishment of communication links between
border crossings. The SPIN communications network has been established and it covers 85% of
field offices, 57% of Border Police units and 39% of the busiest border crossings.
