Bosnia will take control of its air space in mid-2008 and collect about 13 million euros ($16 million) a year in fees, officials said on Monday.
Neighbouring Croatia and Serbia and Montenegro have helped control Bosnia's air space since the end of the 1992-95 war because Bosnia did not have the necessary equipment.
The government last week adopted a strategy for developing air traffic, which officials said would pave the way for talks on a 12 million euro loan from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).
"The doors opened now to talks with EBRD on a new loan which would help us implement the strategy and enable Bosnia to take a full control of its air space in 2008," said Transportation and Communications Minister Branko Dokic.
