Passport Visa
Visitors must have proof of sufficient funds or
onward or return tickets in addition to other documents needed for
the next destination. Valid health insurance is required. All
visitors to Bulgaria, other than EU nationals, must register as
foreigners at a local police station within five days of arrival.
This registration is usually done as a matter of course through the
hotel or accommodation establishment. Visitors are advised to check
this, as a dated registration slip has to be submitted when leaving
the country. Immigration and entry regulations are very strictly
enforced. Passports of all visitors should be valid for at least
three months after leaving Bulgaria for those requiring a visa, and
three months on entry for visa exempt nationals other than those
from EU countries, whose passports must be valid for period of
stay. Visitors should be prepared to show proof of valid medical
insurance upon request.
