FAQ

What is repatriation and what conditions does it provide for obtaining Bulgarian citizenship?

Repatriation is a process of restoring lost citizenship for former Bulgarians and their descendants up to the third generation of kinship. Repatriates can obtain a passport of Bulgaria in a simplified manner, within 8 months, without knowledge of the state language and confirmation of income.

What documents and evidence should be provided when applying for repatriation?

The repatriate needs to confirm an ethnic connection with the people of Bulgaria (for example, by a birth or marriage certificate of a relevant relative). If the applicant does not have suitable documents, lawyers independently conduct archival work and find missing confirmations.

Is there an opportunity to keep your current passport when obtaining Bulgarian citizenship by repatriation?

Bulgarian law allows repatriates to keep their first identity card when issuing a similar document on the territory of the republic. The applicant needs to make sure that multiple citizenship is not prohibited by the laws of his native country.
