Whether you are transiting through Bulgaria, building your business here, or making it your new home - YARD Law Co. provides comprehensive legal assistance with visas, residence, work authorisation, and Bulgarian citizenship. We treat immigration procedures as legal processes with long-term consequences, where mistakes lead to rejections, delays, and loss of time and resources.
Long-term residence in Bulgaria gives the right to live lawfully for up to one year, renewable. The most common grounds include: business activity or participation in a Bulgarian company; employment contract with a Bulgarian employer; freelance work or secondment; study at a licensed institution; family grounds.
Common reasons for refusal: formal compliance without real substance; mismatch between stated grounds and actual activity; procedural failures at renewal; interruption of residence outside permitted periods.
