Decision on Handling Suspected Counterfeit Cash

The Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina issued this Decision to establish procedures for detecting, withdrawing, and analyzing suspected and counterfeit cash in alignment with EU regulations. It mandates that obligated entities, such as banks and payment service providers, must authenticate all received cash and immediately submit suspected items to the Central Bank for technical analysis. The Decision further establishes a Counterfeiting Center to manage data, coordinate with domestic and international authorities, and oversee the destruction of confirmed counterfeit currency.
