Coat of arms of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina

1

There is currently no official coat of arms for the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The federation is part of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Former coat of arms

The federation did have its own coat of arms between 1996 and 2007 when the flag and coat of arms of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina were abolished by a decision made by the Constitutional Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The federation has not yet adopted a new flag or coat of arms, instead the symbols of the central state are used for official purposes as a provisional solution. The green background and the golden fleur-de-lis represented the Bosniaks, while the chequy shield represented the Bosnian Croats. The ten stars arranged in a circle represented the 10 cantons of the Federation and there is a great resemblance to twelve-starred flag of Europe.
