Novoseoci (Serbian Cyrillic: Новосеоци) is a village in the municipality of Sokolac, Bosnia and Herzegovina[1] with cold and temperate climate.[2]

The settlement's population is completely Bosniak and is mainly engaged in animal breeding and agriculture. Before the Bosnian War, the settlement was compact with about 40 houses.
