Frequently asked questions
No. Bulgaria's citizenship-by-investment program closed in April 2022 under pressure from the European Union. Only the permanent residency investment track remains.
Bulgaria grants permanent residency from the start, whereas Portugal, Greece, and Hungary grant temporary residence permits that must be renewed multiple times before permanent residency is considered. Fewer renewals mean less risk of policy changes mid-process.
A flat 10% rate on both personal income tax and corporate tax—the lowest in the European Union.
Approximately 512,000 EUR depending on the accepted investment track. This is higher than Hungary's 250,000 EUR, so you should consider whether immediate permanent residency justifies the difference for your situation.
Yes, it became a full member starting January 2025. Previously, it only participated in air and maritime travel.
The program does not require a minimum residence period. However, if you want to benefit from the 10% tax rate, you must become a tax resident in Bulgaria, which has separate conditions.
Immediate permanent residency is an advantage for certainty, not speed to citizenship. Naturalization still takes multiple years of residence and requires passing a Bulgarian language test.
Among the lowest in the European Union. Sofia is significantly cheaper than Budapest and much cheaper than Western Europe. The trade-off is that infrastructure and services don't match Western European standards, especially outside the capital.
