Volume currents in the magnetosheath region are calculated within the framework of a new analytical model. Magnetic field structure in the region is found, satisfying boundary conditions on the bow shock and the magnetopause, and then volume currents are calculated using the Maxwell equation. Surface bow shock and magnetopause currents are calculated, too. Free parameters of the model are interplanetary magnetic field, Mach number of the solar wind flow, distances to the bow shock and to the magnetopause, and field compression at the magnetopause.
