For 20 years we have guided International entrepreneurs and companies through real estate, company formation and business investment in Bulgaria — now a member of the Eurozone and Schengen Zone.
With EU membership, the euro, a 10% corporate tax rate and direct transport links to Türkiye, Bulgaria offers a strong base for Turkish entrepreneurs who want to establish a company and grow in Europe.
A flat 10% corporate and personal income tax makes Bulgaria one of the most competitive tax regimes in the European Union.
Bulgaria has been a member of the euro area since 1 January 2026. Pricing, payments and financial planning in euros make transactions within Europe simpler.
A company established in Bulgaria provides a local structure for working with customers and business partners throughout the EU. VAT, product and sector-specific rules must still be assessed for each activity.
The shared border and regular road and air connections provide an important advantage for management, logistics and business meetings.
Labour, office and operational costs well below Western European levels — higher profit margins.
The appropriate route depends on your business activity, investment, employment plans and personal circumstances.
Whether you are establishing a new company or expanding an existing business into Bulgaria, you can coordinate the services you need through one team: company formation, banking, tax and accounting, regulatory compliance, real estate and local business development.
Search for offices, shops, warehouses, production sites or investment property, including market research, legal due diligence and support with purchases and leases.
We handle name checks, incorporation documents, notarial procedures, Commercial Register filing, tax registration and the bank account process for EOOD and OOD companies.
For companies entering Bulgaria: market research, company structure, location assessment, local partners, suppliers and an operational plan.
We assess the appropriate route, prepare the documents and follow the application. Eligibility depends on your business activity, investment and employment plans.
We coordinate with local lawyers on contracts, powers of attorney, legal reviews and official applications required during company formation and commercial activity.
Monthly accounting, VAT procedures, tax returns, payroll and statutory deadline monitoring. We organise these processes from your company's first day.

Read article →The questions we receive most often about company formation, bank accounts, tax and employing staff in Bulgaria.
Yes. A Turkish citizen can generally be the sole owner of an EOOD or a shareholder in an OOD. A Bulgarian partner is not normally required. Regulated sectors and certain investments may require additional licensing or screening.
Once the documents are complete, Commercial Register filing usually takes between 3 and 7 working days. When notarial procedures, apostilles, translations, banking and VAT matters are included, planning 2 to 3 weeks for the full process is more realistic. The exact timing depends on your case and the institutions involved.
Yes. You can employ staff through your Bulgarian company. Doing it correctly means keeping HR documentation compliant — employment contracts, payroll and social security registrations. We help you choose the right employment structure for your operations and staffing plan.
Bulgarian companies are generally subject to 10% corporate tax. The standard VAT rate is 20%; VAT registration may be mandatory or voluntary depending on your turnover and transactions. Dividends, salaries, social security and cross-border activities must be assessed separately.
Yes. Real estate is one of our core services. We help you find residential or commercial property, carry out legal due diligence, handle the notary deed, and structure the purchase correctly — whether you are buying to live, to rent, or to invest.
A significant part of the formation process can be completed through a notarised power of attorney. However, a bank, notary or specific application may require your personal presence. We clarify this before starting, based on your company structure and the selected bank.
