What Is Company Registration in Bulgaria?
Company registration in Bulgaria is the legal process of incorporating a business entity with the Bulgarian Commercial Register. Bulgaria offers three main structures for foreign entrepreneurs: the EOOD (single-member LLC) for sole founders wanting full control, the OOD (multi-member LLC) for partnerships and startups with co-founders, and the DPK (variable capital company) designed for tech startups needing flexible equity structures. All three provide limited liability protection, access to the EU single market, and Bulgaria's flat 10% corporate income tax — the lowest in the European Union. Foreign nationals can own 100% of a Bulgarian company with no residency or citizenship requirements. The minimum share capital is just €1, and the entire process can be completed remotely through a notarised Power of Attorney. Since January 2026, Bulgaria is part of the Eurozone, meaning your company operates in euros from day one.

Can foreigners own 100% of a Bulgarian company? +
Yes. There are no restrictions on foreign ownership. You can be the sole shareholder and director of an EOOD without being a resident or citizen of Bulgaria.
Do I need to visit Bulgaria to incorporate? +
No. The entire process is 100% remote. You authorize a representative via a notarized Power of Attorney (which you can sign in your home country with apostille), and we handle everything else.
What is the difference between an EOOD and an OOD? +
An EOOD has a single shareholder, while an OOD has two or more shareholders. The legal structure and tax rates are exactly the same.
How long does the registration process take? +
Once we receive your signed and notarized documents, the actual incorporation at the Commercial Register is typically finalized within 3 to 5 business days.
What is the minimum share capital? +
The minimum share capital for a standard EOOD or OOD is just €1. However, Bulgarian law requires this amount to be deposited into a temporary accumulation account at a local Bulgarian bank before the registration can be submitted — it cannot be paid directly to the Commercial Register or held abroad.
Founders have two options: arrange the transfer to the accumulation account directly themselves, or transfer the capital amount to Bizport EU and we will deposit it on your behalf and obtain the required bank confirmation certificate. Most remote founders opt for the latter as it avoids the need to navigate Bulgarian banking independently.
Please note: banks charge their own account-opening and transaction fees for this step. These fees are payable directly by the client and may be higher for non-EU nationals. Bizport EU is not responsible for any third-party bank charges incurred during the capital deposit process.
Can I register a DPK (Variable Capital Company)? +
Yes, we fully support the new DPK structure, which is ideal for scalable startups needing vesting schedules and easy equity distribution.
What is the corporate tax rate in Bulgaria? +
Bulgaria applies a flat 10% corporate income tax (CIT) rate — the lowest in the EU. This applies to net profits after allowable deductions and is filed annually with the National Revenue Agency (NRA).
Can I manage my Bulgarian company from abroad? +
Yes. Once registered, your Bulgarian company can be fully managed remotely. Directors can hold their position from any country, and all NRA filings, banking, and correspondence can be handled digitally or through a local representative.
What ongoing annual costs should I budget for? +
Typical annual costs include: accountant fees (€50–€150/month), a virtual office address (€25–€50/month), and any applicable tax filings. Our pricing page has a transparent breakdown of all recurring fees.
