The Bosnia and Herzegovina national football team (Bosnian: Nogometna/Fudbalska reprezentacija Bosne i Hercegovine, Serbian: Фудбалска репрезентација Боснe и Херцеговинe, romanized: Fudbalska reprezentacija Bosne i Hercegovine, Croatian: Nogometna reprezentacija Bosne i Hercegovine) represents Bosnia and Herzegovina in international football competitions, and is governed by the Football Association of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

They were eliminated after narrow group stage losses to Argentina and Nigeria and a win over Iran. The national team has appeared in numerous other qualification play-offs, including the 2010 FIFA World Cup play-offs loss to Portugal, as well as the qualifying play-offs for UEFA Euro 2012 and UEFA Euro 2016, losing to Portugal and the Republic of Ireland respectively, preventing the team from reaching their first UEFA European Championship. Their two home stadiums are Bilino Polje in Zenica and Grbavica in Sarajevo. The team's highest FIFA World Ranking was 13th, achieved in August 2013.
