Warnings and insurance
Travel disruption at the Gradiška border crossing
A new border crossing at Gradiška has been temporarily opened as an emergency measure, following a bridge collapse. Delays are expected. Travellers should plan ahead and check local advice before crossing by car.
Significant delays are expected at all crossings between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia due to the EU Entry/Exit System. Long queues in very hot weather may form on the Bosnia and Herzegovina side with no additional services for children or vulnerable people.
