Summary/Abstract: This research compares approaches in the fight against international human trafficking in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Using a comparative method, variables of prevention, protection, criminal prosecution, and sanction are analysed, and, as a result of the comparison, the key points in resolving legal shortcomings present in the Bosnian and Saudi legal framework for the fight against human trafficking are identified. The paper is divided into three parts. The first part portrays the general concept and theoretical overview of the problem of human trafficking. The second part introduces measures against human trafficking in accordance with the international law with the focus on prevention, criminal prosecution, and protection of victims. Finally, in the third part, laws and other measures adopted by Bosnia and Herzegovina and Saudi Arabia in their fight against human trafficking are presented and compared.
