Bosnia And Herzegovina Post Carrier Info & Tips

Bosnia And Herzegovina Post, or BH Pošta, is the national postal operator of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The company is one of the country's three public postal services, along with Pošte Srpske and Hrvatska pošta Mostar, and is the largest of all here. It was founded in 1992 with the independence of Bosnia. This is one of the largest state-owned companies in the country, and in addition to postal and logistics services, it provides a number of support solutions for customers, including typical scaling products of national postal services. The company currently employs about 2,300 people. The headquarters of the company is located in Sarajevo. The history of the company begins much earlier than 1992, and this issue deserves detailed consideration.

History

In general, the first shoots of the postal system in the territory of modern country can be dated back to the era of the Roman Empire, because the "Roman road" ran here.

If we talk about a more organized postal service and objective publicly available information, then the beginning of local mail dates from the beginning of the 19th century. At that time, The country was a part of the Ottoman Empire, and it was the territory of this country that served as an important link in all trade and other communications between it and the West. Goods and mail were transported here almost in all directions and roads. For some countries, this direction was so strategically important that post offices of other countries appeared in Bosnia. For example, we are talking about the French Post office opened in Sarajevo in the 19th century. This office was designed to strengthen relations between France and Turkey, to improve the quality and guarantee of delivery of mail between the two countries.

It is interesting to note that the post at that time had the beginnings of autonomy because the post office of Sarajevo had an official seal with the inscription Bosna Sarai. There is evidence of this fact dating back to the early 19th century. Also, during the entire period of the Turks' rule, all mailings on the territory of these lands were carried out by merchants / carriers, which can be read by a kind of courier or partner service.

Since the second part of the same century, a private post office of the consul of Austria (consular post office) has been working in Sarajevo. Local residents have access to its services, and this led to confrontation between the department and the authorities.

The constructive growth of postal services’ system in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 19th century began when Topal Osman Pasha came to power. As a great vizier, he put a lot of effort and time into organizing an effective post throughout the Ottoman Empire, and the main the postulate of this ambitious idea was published in 1859.

The start of the construction of a national (formal) postal service in Bosnia can be dated to 1858, when the first telegraph appeared in Mostar. By the way, in Sarajevo the same place first appeared only 6 years later.

A new impetus to the development of the postal service happened with the conquer of territory by Austria-Hungary. After the annexation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the postal and telegraph solutions received a fundamentally new structure and management, which were closely related to the wide range spheres of life and existence of Austria-Hungary. Immediately after entering of Sarajevo, a network of military post offices is being founded everywhere. At the same time, in the late 1870s, telegraph stations appeared in all more or less large settlements of the country. It is noteworthy that they all work around the clock.

By the beginning of World War I, in Bosnia, there were nearly 120 such branches. The new main post office of Sarajevo was inaugurated in 1913, and its building was recognized as an architectural masterpiece.

The post of Bosnia continued its gradual development after the devastating war, and by the start of World War 2, there were almost 200 post offices on its territory as part of Yugoslavia. At the same time, the telephone network of the country was actively developing. Some decades later, we can talk about the development of the postal service of Bosnia and Herzegovina as part of the Independent State of Croatia and socialist Yugoslavia subsequently.

The history of the country's independent mail begins with Bosnia gaining independence. During the war, Bosnia and Herzegovina’s postal network suffered massive damage estimated at $ 900 million. The biggest symbol of this is the burning of the Main Post Office in Sarajevo by the Army of Republika Srpska on May 2, 1992, when it was completely burned down.

The local postal service here was immediately founded in 1992. She got the name BH Post. From this day on, the BH postal service in Sarajevo works independently, creating the basis of modern postal services in Bosnia and Herzegovina. In 1993, the BH Post again became a member of the Universal Postal Union.

With the signing of the Dayton Peace Agreement in 1995, which ended the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the post office network of the country was divided into three state operators, including the above-mentioned national postal services of Serbia and Croatia for certain territories of the country. On February 16, 1997, Postbank BH, the Post Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina, was established with headquarters in Sarajevo.

In 1997, in order to diversify services, it was decided to divide the company into two independent structures BH Telecom and BH Post. Since that year, for more than 20 years, the modern Bosnia and Herzegovina Post has been operating.

The 21st century is a time of active development of BH Post and entry into the space of e-services and e-products.

How do we calculate the rating? People are more likely to post negative reviews (for example, when their package is delayed or lost) than positive reviews (when everything is fine). It doesn't mean that bad situations happen more often than smooth delivery, though. That's why we give the negative reviews lower priority to calculate a more accurate carrier rating.
