A month might be too late already. We should aim for 2 at least!
For DebConf6 (I think, doesnt really matter which..) we had the case where
someone from somewhere in Asia, might have been India, had a Visa for Mexico,
had flight tickets from $home to Mexico and back and then was denied a
transit visa for the UK aka Heithrow airport. That person didnt make it :(
Point of the story: it's not only about Visas to Bosnia & Herzegovina, but
also "other stuff" (I'm sure there's more than transit visas here too), why
it's helpful to send visas / visa invitation letters as early as possible.
cheers,
