For BiH citizens, this means that from 1 July 2013 the travel regime for signatory countries to the Schengen Zone will be applied, the crossing of the border with biometric passports as long as EU member states do not grant further access to Croatia with ID cards, according to the BiH Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
BiH and Croatia have started earlier joint activities to maintain and use the existing border regime to cross the border with ID cards after 1 July. This proposal is under consideration at the competent authorities of the EU and EU member states that have to give their consent, according to a statement.
