Section 01 · BA note
Bosnia and Herzegovina depends on entity routing before documents.
The first route note clarifies which authority and operating location can actually support the model.
A Bosnia and Herzegovina project cannot be scoped only by country name. Payment services and securities work may require different authority conversations depending on entity location and the legal wrapper chosen.
SKY7 reviews whether the project needs local company formation, licensing, registration or a comparison against neighbouring European routes before any client-facing timeline is quoted.
The bankability check is essential: settlement flows, counterparties and AML ownership must be realistic for the proposed entity-level route.
