Radio-Television of the Federation of BiH

The Radio-Television network of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (RTVFBiH) manages the Federalna Televizija television station, Radio FBiH, and the Federalna.ba online portal. RTVFBiH was established as a branch during the transformation of the former Radio-Television network of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It operates as a public enterprise of the Federation of BiH, responsible for producing, transmitting, and broadcasting programs to inform citizens of the Federation of BiH while addressing their cultural, educational, and other needs.
While the content of RTVFBiH and Radio FBiH is free to all citizens, households and legal entities in Bosnia and Herzegovina owning a radio or television receiver are obligated to pay a monthly fee for these devices. The regular activities of RTVFBiH are primarily funded through the radio and television tax, collected within the territory of the Federation, marketing and sponsorships.
