Overview
The French Embassy at Mehmed-bega Kapetanovića Ljubušaka 18 in Sarajevo manages France's relationship with Bosnia and Herzegovina. Ambassador François Delmas leads the mission. France holds deep diplomatic significance for Bosnia-Herzegovina as co-signatory and host of the Dayton-Paris Peace Agreement (December 1995) that ended the Bosnian War — the 30th anniversary was commemorated in December 2025. France actively supports Bosnia-Herzegovina's path toward EU membership and maintains contributions to international stabilisation efforts. The embassy promotes academic and scientific cooperation, environmental initiatives (EKOOPŠTINA programme), and cultural exchange.
Consular Services
The embassy provides consular services to French citizens in Bosnia-Herzegovina: passport and identity card services, civil registration, nationality matters, notarial acts, and emergency assistance. The consular section also processes visa and ETIAS applications for Bosnian citizens seeking to travel to France or the Schengen area.
Service Area
The embassy covers all of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Special Notes
The embassy is located on Mehmed-bega Kapetanovića Ljubušaka 18 in central Sarajevo. Website available in French and Bosnian. The Dayton-Paris connection gives France a unique diplomatic position in Bosnia-Herzegovina's peace architecture.
