On January 3, 2024, a contract was signed in Sarajevo on the procurement of equipment for digital transmission and broadcasting, which is required for the realization of the Project of Digitization of Public Broadcasting Services in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
After the first phase, which OIV completed back in 2016, this long-awaited continuation will realize the second as well as third and final phase of digitization, which will enable all citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina to receive programs of Public RTV services in BiH via the DVB-T2 digital platform terrestrial television.
The deadline for putting the entire system into operation is 510 days from the signing of the contract, and the completion of both phases of the project is expected in the middle of 2025. However, with the end of second phase in 2024 the majority of the country’s citizens will be able to watch terrestrial television via the new digital signal.
