Does Enterprise require an IDP in Bosnia and Herzegovina?
Enterprise in Bosnia and Herzegovina: the policy in plain terms
Requires an IDP alongside your home licence where local law mandates it (much of Europe, Asia and South America). The world's largest car-rental brand by fleet size.
Driving is on the right and the country signs the 1968 Vienna Convention; an IDP is advised alongside your licence for mountainous routes and frequent police checks.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina specifically, bosnia and Herzegovina legally requires foreign drivers to carry an International Driving Permit with their national licence, so Enterprise will ask for it at the counter. Sarajevo and Mostar desks ask for an IDP with non-EU licences.
Enterprise runs a global network; at its Bosnia and Herzegovina desks, foreign renters are asked for the 1968 Vienna-format International Driving Permit alongside the original licence. Bosnia and Herzegovina drives on the right, uses the BAM, and sets a minimum driving age of 18, so an IDP is the document that removes any doubt at the counter.
What to bring to the Enterprise counter in Bosnia and Herzegovina
- Your original national driving licence (the IDP never replaces it).

- Your passport and a payment card in the main driver's name.
