Bureau of Immigration(BI)

Good day,

I would like to request for Certificate of Citizenship as it is one of the requirements to get married in Bosnia. I am a Born and raise Filipino (no other citizenship) and we are planning to do it on March 10, 2022.

Please kindly assist me as I still need to make an appointment for apostille in DFA and no one replied yet on my email nor when I called the person on the direct line are out.
