Company Registration in Bulgaria

Can I register a company in Bulgaria without travelling there?

Yes. Registration can be done remotely under a notarised power of attorney, which is signed abroad and, where required, legalised or apostilled.

What does registration cost with you?

My fee is €150 for a single-member company (EOOD) and €170 for a company with several partners (OOD), plus the state fee. Remote registration is 10% cheaper. See the prices page.

I register companies in Bulgaria for Bulgarian and foreign clients, in person or remotely. I prepare the documents, deal with the notary and the Commercial Register, and follow the file until the company is entered.

Types of company

EOOD — a limited liability company with a single owner. The usual choice for one founder.
OOD — a limited liability company with two or more partners.
AD — a joint-stock company, for larger projects and investors.
Sole trader (ET) — a natural person registered as a trader, who is personally liable.

The steps

Choosing the form and the name

We agree the form of the company, its name, its registered office and its business activities.

Drafting the documents

I prepare the articles of association or the founding decision, the specimen signature of the manager and the declarations required by law.

Signing

The documents are signed before a notary in Bulgaria, or abroad under a notarised power of attorney.

Filing with the Commercial Register

I file the application electronically with the Commercial Register at the Registry Agency and pay the state fee.

Entry and after

After entry the company receives its identification number. I can then help with bank account opening, tax registration and accounting contacts.

Fees

My fee is €150 for an EOOD and €170 for an OOD, plus the state fee for the entry. If the registration is done remotely, my fee is 10% lower. Non-EU citizens who do not want to open a bank account first can use the guaranteed registration at €500. All prices are on the prices page.

Foreigners and remote registration

You do not need to come to Plovdiv. A notarised power of attorney lets me sign and file on your behalf. Step-by-step details, including the notary and the apostille, are in the articles below.
