The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Sites are places of importance to cultural or natural heritage as described in the UNESCO World Heritage Convention, established in 1972. Bosnia and Herzegovina inherited the former country of Yugoslavia's accession to the convention on 12 July 1993 as one of the successor states.

2018年現在, there are three sites in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the list and a further 11 on the tentative list (the official list of sites that may be considered for future submission). The first site, the Old Bridge Area of the Old City of Mostar, was inscribed to the list at the 29th UNESCO session in 2005. In 1993, during the Bosnian War, it was destroyed by the Croatian Defence Council in an artillery barrage. It was reconstructed after the conflict and reopened in 2004. In 2007, the Mehmed Paša Sokolović Bridge in Višegrad was inscribed to the list. This was followed by the inscription of the Stećci Medieval Tombstones Graveyards in 2016. The latter is a transnational site, which is also partly in Croatia, Serbia, and Montenegro. Out of 28 listed Stećci sites, 20 are located in Bosnia and Herzegovina, with the most prominent one in Radimlja.

UNESCO lists sites under ten criteria; each entry must meet at least one of the criteria. Criteria i through vi are cultural, whereas vii through x are natural.

The largest cluster is located in Radimlja, in the Stolac municipality.

Tentative list

In addition to the sites inscribed on the World Heritage list, member states can maintain a list of tentative sites that they may consider for nomination. Nominations for the World Heritage list are only accepted if the site was previously listed on the tentative list. As of 2019, Bosnia and Herzegovina recorded eleven sites on its tentative list.
