Enforcement in BiH

The enforcement procedure starts by filing a motion for enforcement, which is a strictly formal act that must contain all mandatory elements prescribed by the law, otherwise it will be dismissed by the court.

Motions for enforcement cannot be filed without an adequate underlying document required by the law. Such enforceable documents include: enforceable court rulings and enforceable court settlements, enforceable decisions issued in the administrative procedure and settlements reached in the administrative procedure for payment of a monetary liability, unless otherwise specified by the law, enforceable notarial documents, other documents designated by the law as enforceable documents.
