On 24 October 2024, the European Commissioner for Justice, Didier Reynders, and the Minister of Justice of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), Davor Bunoza, signed a cooperation agreement on Eurojust to increase the efficiency of investigations and prosecutions in the fields of organised crime, terrorism, trafficking in human beings, cybercrime, and other transnational criminal activities. Under the agreement, BiH will be able to post a liaison prosecutor to Eurojust, enabling direct participation in joint investigations and access to Eurojust's operational tools. The next steps are for the agreement to be ratified and for BiH to adopt a new law on personal data protection in line with EU standards.

The Eurojust agreement is a further key step for BiH's integration into the EU law enforcement and judicial cooperation framework. BiH already concluded an operational and strategic cooperation agreement with Europol and a working arrangement with the European Public Prosecutor's Office (→eucrim 4/2023, 321-322).
