The Portrait Box on Bosnia and Herzegovina’s Temporary-Residence Form

For temporary residence in Bosnia & Herzegovina, the Service for Foreigners’ Affairs publishes a dedicated form for approval or renewal. Its photograph box is marked 35 by 45 millimetres. That gives the applicant a concrete image format tied to the residence file, rather than relying on a photograph intended for an unrelated identity card.

The form gathers personal details and information about residence permission held in another country. Prepare the portrait alongside the correct passport and supporting identity documents so those details describe the same person. Selecting approval or renewal also matters: the photograph accompanies the residence transaction being requested, while the authority assesses its legal basis and evidence.

Use our photo quality and framing guides before preparing the prints for the marked space. Review the current photo requirements and retain the original digital photograph if the receiving office needs another copy. A recognizable likeness is more useful than a heavily edited image, particularly when the officer compares the form with the applicant’s travel document.

The authority publishes a separate form for permanent residence, so confirm the correct service rather than treating all residence applications as identical. The visa finder can support research into entry arrangements, but it does not replace instructions from the Service for Foreigners’ Affairs about remaining in the country. If seeking information from abroad, our embassy and consulate directory helps locate official contacts. Keep the chosen form, photograph and application reference together when arranging submission or responding to a request for further documents.
