A valid U.S. passport is required for U.S. citizens. Your U.S. passport must be valid for at least three (3) months from the expected date of departure from Bulgaria. U.S. citizens may stay in Bulgaria for a total of 90 days within any six-month period without a Bulgarian visa. This law is strictly enforced. Travelers who have been in the country for 90 days and then leave will not be able to re-enter Bulgaria before the six-month period expires. Please plan and apply for your visa early.

Visit the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs or Bulgarian Embassy website for the most current visa information.

Carry your U.S. passport at all times or a Bulgarian residence permit, known in Bulgaria as lichna karta. U.S. passport cards are recognized as proof of citizenship and identity but are not sufficient for international air travel to and from Bulgaria.

Visitors are required to maintain medical insurance for the duration of stay in Bulgaria. You may be required to present proof of medical insurance at the port of entry. Medical evacuation insurance is recommended.

Traveling with Children Under 18 Years Old: Regulations apply to Bulgarian minors, Bulgarian-U.S. dual citizen minors, and U.S. citizen minors when one or both parents are Bulgarian.

If a Bulgarian or dual U.S. citizen-Bulgarian child is traveling out of Bulgaria with only one or no parent, the absent parent(s) must sign a declaration authorizing temporary custody for travel purposes. The declaration must be certified by a Bulgarian notary public. See more information on Bulgaria’s Border Police website. While not required, some travelers have been asked to produce a child’s birth certificate.

If the declaration is signed in the U.S., it must be certified by a U.S. notary public and the court in the jurisdiction where the notary is licensed, have an apostille, and be translated into Bulgarian by a licensed translation company.

If you fail to present the properly notarized and/or apostilled declaration, Bulgarian authorities will not allow you to depart the country with the child. The U.S. Embassy is unable to intervene in such circumstances.

Can I extend my Bulgaria visa once in-country?

Extension policies vary. In most cases, applicants can apply for an extension at the local Public Security Bureau before the current visa expires. Travel Visa Pro can provide specific guidance.

Can Travel Visa Pro help if I need my visa urgently?

What happens if I overstay my visa?

Overstaying a visa can result in fines, detention, deportation, and difficulties with future visa applications. Applicants should ensure their stay falls within the authorized period.

What if my passport doesn't have enough validity?

The passport must be valid for at least six months beyond the intended stay. If it does not meet this requirement, Travel Visa Pro can assist with expedited passport renewal before applying for the visa.

What's the difference between applying through Travel Visa Pro and going directly to the consulate?

When applicants apply through Travel Visa Pro, the company reviews documents for errors, handles submission on the applicant’s behalf, and provides real-time tracking. Applying directly to the consulate requires managing the entire process personally, with limited support if issues arise.
