Historical changes and upcoming regulatory events
- Allowed
Event: Western Balkan Regulators Call for Stronger Support to Align with European Standards: Regulatory authorities from the Western Balkans gathered in Athens to discuss aligning their frameworks with Council of Europe and European Union’s standards, particularly the EU’s Digital Services Act. This suggests future potential for online content regulation, including possibly age verification, but does not reflect current laws.
- Allowed
Event: Building safer digital spaces in Bosnia and Herzegovina: Staff of the Communications Regulatory Agency (CRA) took part in a specialised training organised by the Council of Europe, focusing on countering disinformation and promoting digital literacy to create safer online spaces. This indicates ongoing efforts towards online content regulation, but not a current legal mandate for age verification on adult content.
