Rezime: Ustav Bosne i Hercegovine garantuje pravo na slobodu kretanja robe i usluga na cijeloj teritoriji Bosne i Hercegovine. U procesu integracije u Evropsku uniju, Bosna i Hercegovina i Republika Srpska su se obavezali da će prilagoditi svoje propise zakonodavstvu Evropske unije. Protok robe i usluga se, razvojem internet tehnologija, u određenoj mjeri prebacio u domen elektronskog poslovanja. Ako se uprava posmatra preko usluga koje pruža građanima i poslovnoj zajednici, može se konstatovati da ove usluge mogu biti servisi koji su dostupni korisnicima različitim kanalima komunikacije. I uprava može svoje usluge pružati prema prencipima na kojima je zasnovane elektronsko poslovanje. Shodno navedenom, Evropska unija je, shodno Ugovoru o funkcionisanju, defi nisala kroz Evropsku regulativu o uslugama, servise koji bi trebali da učine dostupnim zajedničko tržište u svakoj članici Unije. Također, Evropska unija je utvrdila načine identifikacije i načine realizacije usluga povjerenja na jedinstvenom tržištu kroz usvajanje eIDAS regulative, odnosno Regulative o elektronskoj identifikaciji i uslugama povjerenja za elektronske transakcije na unutrašnjem tržištu broj 910/14. Bosna i Hercegovina i Republika Srpska imaju obavezu da usvoje zakonske odredbe kojima provode obaveze usvojene eIDAS regulativom. U članu 3 stav 3 tačka a) Ustava Bosne i Hercegovine je propisano da sve što nije isključiva nadležnost Bosne i Hercegovinen propisana Ustavom jeste nadležnost entiteta. Dakle, regulisanje tržišta elektronskih usluga jeste nadležnost entiteta. Shodno tome, Republika Srpska je usvojila set zakona koji je usklađen sa eIDAS regulativom i kojima se defi nišu pojmovi koji su regulisane eIDAS regulativom vezano za elektronsko poslovanje, elektronsku identifi kaciju i usluge povjerenja. Još 2006 godine je Bosna i Hercegovina usvojila Zakon o elektronskom potpisu, koristeći odredbe Ustava Bosne i Hercegovine da je sve ono o č emu se entiteti usaglase nadležnost Bosne i Hercegovine. Ovaj Zakon nije usklađen sa eIDAS regulativom. U okviru rada je obrađen način primjene eIDAS regulative u Republici Srpskoj, te je prikazano stanje u oblasti relizacije Evropske direktive o uslugama, kao i načini pune primjene eIDAS regulative i razmjenu podataka o uslugama povjerenja i certifikacionim tijelima sa institucijama Evropske unije i drugim zemljama članicama.
