Summary/Abstract: This paper analyzes the Law on Asylum part which includes administrative regulation of international protection (asylum), drawing attention to the jurisdictions, asylum procedures, as well as the rights accountabilities of asylum seekers and individuals whose refugee or subsidiary protection status was approved. Certain conclusions can be drawn from the results of the overall analyzes. In principle, one can state that there exists a relatively good legislative framework in the aspect of asylum, however , in practice, no desired results are achieved. The legal solutions are highly coordinated with the international standards and the legal assets of the EU in the domain of asylums. There is a growing need for additional convergence, mainly in the aspects of defining asylum seekers and refugees, along with the access to rights and legal support. It is obviously mandatory to remove certain legal loopholes and legislator vagueness, all of which are indicated in this paper. Yet, it seems that the fundamental reason of the asylum system's dysfunctionality in Bosnia and Herzegovina lies within the lack of material and other capacities of the institutions in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which are predominantly responsible for the enforcement and the implementation of the law.
