# List of heads of government of Bosnia and Herzegovina

This article lists the heads of government of Bosnia and Herzegovina since the country was formalized as the Federal State of Bosnia and Herzegovina, a constituent unit of the Democratic Federal Yugoslavia, in April 1945.
Since 1945, the heads of government have received several titles, such as:
* Prime Minister (1945–1953)
* President of the Executive Council (1953–1992)
* Prime Minister (1992–1997)
* Chairman of the Council of Ministers (1997–present).
Following the Bosnian War, from 3 January 1997 to 6 June 2000, the office of head of government was shared by two members, one each from the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska.
