Details of all costs related to setting up a company in Bulgaria
100 € – “Cumulative Bank Account” checkup Fees for Initial Capital
Opening a cumulative bank account that will recdive an initial capital is a mandatory step to start with a company registration in Bulgaria.
The chosen Bulgarian bank will then check your documents, verify your identity and decide to let you open this account or not.
The typical cost of this verification service is 100 €. In case of refusal of your application, note that you won’t be able to get those 100 € refunded!
That’s why we’ve been working since 2017 with a specific bank partner that so far has a 99% chance of approval to open those Cumulative Bank Accounts for foreigners.
And if you can’t or don’t want to travel to Bulgaria for this necessary step, know that we can help you do it from abroad!
Just contact us, we’ll explain everything.
25 – 50 € – Notary Fees
Notary fees for certifying the signature of the company’s founder on the registration application and other documents can range from 50 to 100 BGN (25 to 50 EUR).
Note that to register your company in Bulgaria your application has to be written and signed in Bulgarian. The notary will also ask you to be accompanied by a certified translator in order to proceed.
Our expert accountant Ivailo can fulfill this role and everything is usually done in 15 minutes in his presence.
1 € – Minimum Initial Capital
The minimum share capital for a Limited Liability Company (LTD/OOD) is 2 BGN (approximately 1 EUR). This is the amount that will be deposited in the Cumulative Account talked about earlier.
28 to 56 € – Company Registration Fees
The fee for registering a company in the Bulgarian Commercial Register is approximately 55 BGN (28 EUR) for online registration and 110 BGN (56 EUR) for paper registration.
60 to 150 € – Certified translation services
As said above, the notary will expect you to be accompanied by a certified translator to sign the registration, unless you speak fluent Bulgarian.
Both the VAT Registration and the Social Security Registration should be done in Bulgarian as well.
This has to be done by a certified translator, which can add additional costs ranging from BGN 100 to BGN 300 (EUR 50 to EUR 150), depending on the length of the documents to translate in Bulgarian.
Once again, this translation is included at no extra cost in our full package for registration.
0 € – VAT Registration
VAT registration is free of charge. It’s quite the bureaucratic nightmare however for foreigners… and even for Bulgarians too most of the time.
10 € to 50 € – Company Bank Opening Fees
The cost of opening a regular professional bank account is typically around 100 BGN (50 EUR) but it’s possible to choose an online banking platform that can lower that price to 10 € or even less.
We’d be happy to advise you on the best professional banking solution for your situation.
0 € – Social Security Registration
Registration to the National Revenue Agency for social security purposes is free of charge.
