FACT: The BiH Constitutional Court ruled on the constitutionality of the use of the term “border” in the RS Constitution in January 2000, concluding that the term “border” is unconstitutional. The disputed article of the RS Constitution was amended to replace the term “border” with the term “inter-entity boundary line.” There is no state border between the entities.
The BiH Constitution provides: “There shall be freedom of movement throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina. Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Entities shall not impede full freedom of movements of persons, goods, services, and capital throughout Bosnia and Herzegovina. Neither Entity shall establish controls at the boundary between the Entities.”
