The author compares, using qualitative interviews with female migrants from Bosnia and Herzegovina of Bosniak ethnic background, the experiences of migrants coming to Slovenia before its independence and those coming after the break-up of the common Yugoslav state. She assumes that the creation of a sovereign Slovenian nation-state and the process of Slovenia’s accession towards the European Union, have contributed to an increasing insecurity and vulnerability of female migrants from third-countries. The interviews speak in favour of the assumption that existing migration regimes in Slovenia point to an increasingly restrictive migration policy.Avtorica z uporabo kvalitativnih intervjujev z migrantkami iz Bosne in Hercegovine bošnjaške etnične pripadnosti primerja izkušnje migrantk, ki so v Slovenijo prišle pred njeno osamosvojitvijo, in tistih, ki so prišle po razpadu skupne jugoslovanske države. Domneva, da sta oblikovanje suverene slovenske nacionalne države in proces vključevanja Slovenije v Evropsko unijo prispevala k naraščajoči negotovosti in ranljivosti migrantk iz t.i. tretjih držav. Pogovori potrjujejo domnevo, da obstoječi migracijski režimi kažejo na vedno večjo restriktivnost migracijskih politik v Sloveniji
