Fees
Application / Registration fees - For the nostifikacija (equivalence) of foreign educational documents: BAM 100.00 for certification of completed primary/secondary education. BAM 50.00 for nostifikacija of an individual grade.
Tuition fees by year group (per term / per year) - The school has not published a public, itemised tuition schedule (per year group or per term) for the 2026/27 academic year; the most recent public enrollment announcement that includes a financial detail refers only to an early-registration discount (15% on the annual tuition) for the 2025/26 intake. No full per-grade or per-term tuition amounts are available in the school's public pages.
Billing schedule and payment terms - An advertised early-registration incentive: a 15% discount on the annual tuition amount for early registrants (noted for the 2025/26 intake). No standard public schedule of instalments, deposit amounts, or term-by-term billing dates is published. Parents should expect standard private-school billing practices (annual or term invoicing) but must obtain the school's official fee schedule for exact deadlines and instalment options.
Boarding fees (if applicable) - No boarding/dormitory fees or boarding facilities are listed in the school's public information for Maarif International Schools Bosnia and Herzegovina. The school is presented as a day-school campus in public materials. No boarding fee schedule is published.
Other costs and typical additional charges - Document-equivalence fees (see Application section): BAM 100.00 and BAM 50.00. - No public price list for uniforms, transport (bus) fees, meals/catering, extracurricular activity fees, examination fees, or textbook charges was published on the school's public pages. Where such costs exist they are not itemised publicly and must be requested from the school.
Refund information - No publicly posted refund policy or formal refund procedure for tuition, deposits, or other fees was found in the school's public materials. For refunds of payments already made parents should contact the school's administration for the official policy and procedure.
Fee payment options and banking details (publicly listed items) - For nostifikacija/equivalence payments the public payment instructions list payment to the Sarajevo Canton budget account with the following details: account number 141 196 53200084 75; budget organisation 2101001; revenue type 722429; municipality 077. These equivalence payments are processed via bank payment as listed. - No public statement listing accepted payment methods for regular tuition (credit card, bank transfer, cheque, cash) appears on the school's public pages; the only explicit payment route published relates to the Ministry/nostifikacija payments.
How this applies to the 2026/27 requirement - The school's public pages do not publish a 2026/27 tuition schedule; the only clear monetary items publicly posted relate to document-equivalence fees (BAM 100.00 / BAM 50.00) and the previously advertised 15% early-registration discount for the 2025/26 intake. For a complete, itemised 2026/27 tuition and fees schedule (tuition by grade, per-term breakdown, instalment plan, uniforms, transport and catering fees, refund policy and accepted payment methods), request the official fee schedule from the school's admissions or finance office.

Summary of findings and gaps - Publicly available and verifiable fee items for Maarif International Schools Bosnia and Herzegovina are limited to nostifikacija/equivalence fees (BAM 100.00 and BAM 50.00) and a published early-registration discount (15% for the 2025/26 intake).
