Summary/Abstract: Acquis communautaire in the domain of environmental protection is a body of legal documents, which the EU uses and which impose obligations on national legislatures. Today it numbers more than 300 legislative acts divided into 11 sub-sectors representing different spheres of environment management. For each country, including B&H as a potential candidate for the accession to the EU, an efficient establishment of an institutional system of environmental protection at all administrative levels is of exceptional importance. All this requires numerous activities related to the process of the accession to the EU, which will bring about many changes in the national legislation. The conditions and the mode of accepting and implementing the EU acquis constitute the topics of the negotiations on the EU membership, and environment is one of the chapters in these negotiations. The presupposition for a successful approximation of national legislations to the European ones in the area of environmental protection is certainly a good knowledge of the role and importance of EU institutions competent for the enactment of legal regulations and the acquis in this domain. Therefore, this paper gives a brief presentation of the EU institutions competent for the passage of regulations in the area of the environmental protection, then of the basic decision-making procedure in their enactment, of the goals and principles of the EU environmental policy, of the action programs, of the EU Strategy for smart growth and sustainable and inclusive development and of the EU acquis, especially in the domain of the environmental protection, with an emphasis on its transposition into the legislation of the Federation B&H.
