The Embassy of the United Kingdom in Sarajevo is the chief diplomatic mission of the United Kingdom in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Matt Field has been the British Ambassador to Bosnia and Herzegovina since August 2018.[2]
The Embassy also represents the British Overseas Territories in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
History[edit]
The British Embassy in Sarajevo was first established in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, in 1994. From that time on, the Embassy was located in a small villa in downtown Sarajevo, in 8 Tina Ujevica street. When it was established, the Embassy was more of a 'British Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina', until the building was officially opened as the British Embassy in 1997, following refurbishment. The British Embassy Office in Banja Luka opened in April 1998, not long after the Embassy was officially established.[3]
The Embassy outgrew its location at 8 Tina Ujevica street and moved in 2013 to its current location at 39a Hamdije Cemerlica street.[4]
