Bosnian Laissez-Passer Photo

Two Colour Photographs for a Return Document to Bosnia and Herzegovina

A laissez-passer, also called a putni list, serves a return journey to Bosnia & Herzegovina when the traveller is abroad without a passport. The Foreign Ministry’s consular guidance describes the service for citizens staying abroad for less than three months. Start by explaining the circumstances to the responsible mission so it can establish whether this return document is the appropriate assistance.

The ministry lists two colour photographs measuring 35 by 45 millimetres. Prepare them as a matching set with the supporting identity documents requested by the consular office. The fresh portrait helps connect the person seeking help with the evidence available after a passport has become unavailable.

Review photo quality, framing and facial expression before producing the prints. The image should provide a recognizable likeness, and the complete photo requirements should be checked with the receiving mission. Keep the original digital photograph in case an additional copy is requested, without assuming that sending a file alone completes the consular application.

Use the embassy and consulate directory to contact the mission serving your location and clarify the proposed return route. This document’s stated purpose is return to Bosnia and Herzegovina, so acceptance for an intermediate connection should be confirmed before travel. The visa finder is useful for ordinary destination research but cannot establish whether a carrier or transit country will accept a particular emergency document. Organize the photograph, identity evidence and itinerary together so the mission can assess the same journey for which the return document is being sought.
