About the Bosnian mark
The Bosnia and Herzegovina convertible mark (BAM) is fixed to the euro by law: 1 euro is 1.95583 marks, the ratio the German mark once had. BAM/ALL is therefore, in effect, EUR/ALL divided by 1.95583. It is very rarely changed in Albania.
What moves the BAM/ALL rate
- EUR/ALL — the only driver that matters, because of the fixed rate to the euro
- The currency board of the Central Bank of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which guarantees that rate
- Exchange-office margins, very wide for a currency that is hardly traded

Bosnian Mark to Lek: common questions
How many lek is 1 Bosnian mark today?
The rate moves through the day. The figures at the top of this page are the current average buy and sell rates across the sources we track, refreshed every 15 minutes; the table above shows what each source quotes, and the home page compares every currency.
Is it the same as the German mark?
No. The German mark went out of circulation when the euro arrived. The Bosnian mark was introduced in 1998 at 1:1 with the German mark, and today keeps the same fixed ratio to the euro.
Where can I change Bosnian marks?
In Albania only at very few exchange offices, at a very wide margin — see the table above. If you are travelling to Bosnia, take euros: they are exchanged everywhere there at the fixed rate and are often accepted directly.
