In Bosnia and Herzegovina there is no official classification of economic regions. According to historical, economical, social and cultural relations in Bosnia and Herzegovina, five economic regions are identified.

An Economic Region is a single economic space, consisting of a number of local units, which have common economic relations.

Regional Development Agencies (RDAs) are key actors in the elaboration and implementation of economic development strategies at regional level.

The RDAs are essentially non profit-making organizations, founded by the public, private and non-governmental sectors, to contribute to overall economic development. They are instruments to support economic regeneration, job creation and human resource and infrastructure development in the different regions.
