Sažetak
This paper is a pilot research of the informal economic activity in the touristic sector in the Federation
of Bosnia and Herzegovina through the application of a desktop research and comparison of
the official indicators and capacities offer at the Internet platform Booking.com.
The paper aims at presenting capacities level, ie the number of overnight stays which is not officially
registered, on the example of two cantons with the highest number of touristic visits (Herzegovina-
Neretva Canton and Sarajevo Canton). All countries, new members of the EU or the ones that
have the status of a candidate, are obliged to estimate the level of informal economy in the overall
economic activity.
The paper gives a rough estimate of the level of informal economy in tourism. An interval of
40 – 60 % BDP was used in selected cantons of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The
research is based on nonregistered overnight stay capacities, percentage of utilization of capacities
and collected incomes from the taxes.
