Moving to Bulgaria . Expatriating and living in Bulgaria

 

 

In the world there are about 196 states, all different in culture but also and above all in geographical characteristics. There is always an embarrassment of choice whenever you have to choose a destination for a trip or to change life radically. We at Realigro, today, have no doubt. Our mini guide today, in fact, will be based on a nation of Eastern Europe, with a unique history and many opportunities to be discovered. Are you curious to know more? Well, you just have to pay attention to the next few lines, because we will give you all the information you need to be able to buy a property in Bulgaria. 

So, if you are ready, we can start! 

                  

We inaugurate our mini guide with the basics. What are the necessary documents to be able to access Bulgaria? Although the country has been a member of the European Union since 1 January 2007, it is not yet part of the Schengen area. It is therefore necessary to travel with a valid document. A passport is not required for European citizens if they intend to stay in the country for no longer than 90 days. 

After having overcome this administrative obstacle, let's now analyze another fundamental element: the language. Officially, Bulgarian is spoken in Bulgaria and English is particularly widespread in the most important urban centres. The older population and, in general, in areas further away from large metropolises, the Russian language is spoken instead. So, for any eventuality, we advise you to repeat a little 'of English grammar.

After having solved also this problem, we enter in the heart of our mini guide: the Bulgarian economy. In Bulgaria the official currency is the Lev. ( 1 Euro = 1.9558 Leverage) . To better give a clear and detailed overview, we decided to include a small list with the main products of primary need included in the basket of goods, and in general, the services that you can take advantage of once you arrive in Bulgaria.
