Bosnia year 2006 stamps Europa CEPT Integration of immigrants MNH**

The Europa CEPT theme for 2006 was “Integration as seen by young people.” As with most stamp issues in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), the theme was issued separately by the country’s three postal administrations, each with its own design and values.

Here are the details for the 2006 Europa CEPT stamps on the theme of “Integration of Immigrants” from the three posts in Bosnia and Herzegovina:

Bosnia and Herzegovina Postal Administrations

1. BH Pošta (Sarajevo)

(The Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina Post)

• Issue: A set of stamps focusing on the theme of “Integration of Immigrants.”
• Design: The design featured artwork created by young people to express their view of integration, aligning with the common PostEurop theme.
• Motive: Typically depicted symbolic representations of unity, diversity, or people from different backgrounds joining hands.

2. Hrvatska Pošta Mostar (Mostar)

(The Croatian Administration Post)

• Issue: A set of stamps on the “Integration” theme.
• Additional Issue: This administration also issued a miniature sheet to commemorate the “50th Anniversary of the First EUROPA Issue” (1956-2006).
  • Value (Miniature Sheet): 2.00 KM (Convertible Marka).
• Motive: The designs typically reflected the concept of diverse cultures merging or coexisting peacefully.

3. Pošte Srpske (Banja Luka)

(The Republika Srpska Post)

• Issue: Typically issued a set of two stamps on the common “Integration” theme.
• Motive: Like the other posts, the designs utilized symbolic imagery to represent the social and cultural integration of people from different backgrounds, as interpreted by young artists.

Note: Due to the unique tripartite postal system in Bosnia and Herzegovina, collectors typically seek all three sets to complete the “Bosnian” Europa CEPT issue for a given year. The specific face values for the individual stamps vary between the three administrations.
