Bosniaks in Germany (German: Bosniaken in Deutschland, Bosnian: Bošnjaci u Njemačkoj) are a large community of Bosniaks within the Federal Republic of Germany. The vast majority of Bosniaks immigrated to Germany during and after the Bosnian War which lasted from 1992–95. Members of the community's ancestry can be traced to Bosnia and Herzegovina and the geopolitical region known as Sandžak. The largest Bosniak population can be found in Berlin, Hamburg, Munich and other bigger cities in Germany.

It is estimated that there are around 438,000 Bosniaks in Germany.[1]
