American buying in BG... immigration questions

You can see the reasons for getting a visa/residence permit in article 24 of this document: http://www.investbg.government.bg/files … 140722.pdf

Buying a property is not one of the things, but having a pension or working as a freelancer are...  (this won't allow you to get a job in a bulgarian company, but to work on your own).

As far as I know, non-eu people still have to open a company to buy property with land, but it is a quick and cheap process. (I could be wrong on that... it is just as far as I know)

Yes Kojidae is right. As an American you will have to open a company. Than you will have to pay yourself an income from that company to have an official job and sign a declaration with the notary that you will not live from the Bulgarian social system. With that you go to the immigration office and they will give you a residence card and a Bulgarian ID for foreigners,

I know a trustworthy accountant and a notary that can help you with that if you need.

@Guest31654978 Hi, Just wondering if you are living in Pleven? I'm an American who just moved here a couple of weeks ago. I'd love to connect if you are around.
