Statehood Day (Serbo-Croatian Latin: Dan državnosti, Serbo-Croatian Cyrillic: Дан државности) is a holiday that occurs every year on 25 November in Bosnia and Herzegovina to commemorate the day in 1943 on which the ZAVNOBiH made Resolution of ZAVNOBiH declaring BiH peoples' will for BiH to be their country.[2][3][4]

The Law on the Proclamation of 25 November on the Statehood Day of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Official Gazette of R BiH, No. 9/95) stipulates that on 25 November the Statehood Day of Bosnia and Herzegovina.[2]

Statehood Day is not to be confused with BiH's Independence Day, which is held each year on 1 March in honor of the 1992 plebiscite that indicated that 63.6% (invalid, not 2/3 majority for plebiscite to be considered legal in favor of that majority)[5] of Bosnians and Herzegovinians were in favor of becoming a sovereign nation.[6]
