Director of an LLC in BiH: Rights, Legal Obligations, and Liabilities Under the Law

Cash Withdrawal from Bank Account

One of the most common misconceptions among entrepreneurs is that they can freely dispose of money from the transaction account of a business entity (LLC) or a sole proprietorship (obrt). According to the effective laws in Bosnia and Herzegovina, money in a company's bank account is strictly the property of the legal entity. Any cash withdrawal and handling of cash transactions are strictly regulated by the Law on Internal Payment Transactions and the Decree on the Conditions and Manner of Cash Payments in FBiH. The Tax Administration and financial inspectors conduct regular and rigorous audits of cash flows. Misuse of cash withdrawals, lack of supporting documentation, or ignorance of legal prohibitions lead to forced account blockades, high misdemeanor fines, and retroactive calculations of income tax and contributions. Below is a detailed overview of what is legally permitted and what is strictly forbidden to pay in cash, the rules mandated by the Decree on Cash Payments, and how a expert bookkeeper, accountant, and professional bookkeeping service ensure lawful business operations.
