Depiction of Stjepan Dabiša in his seal (1395).

Stjepan Dabiša († 1395 ) from the house of Kotromanić , was King of Bosnia from 1391 to 1395 . He was a nephew and the successor of the first Bosnian king Tvrtko I.

Under his rule, an Ottoman attack on Bosnia was repulsed in 1392 . In 1394 he made peace with the Hungarian King Sigismund , who ended a long war between the two kingdoms and reversed the cession of territory by his predecessor Tvrtko. For this he had to renounce Bosnia's claims to rule over Croatia and Dalmatia .

Stjepan Dabiša died in 1395 and was succeeded by his wife Jelena Gruba ("Jelena the Unplaned") on the throne.
