Unfortunately, nowadays, the problem of finding workforce and quality staff is becoming more serious and a large part of Bulgarian companies choose to import workforce from abroad.
Abroad refers to “third-country nationals”, i.e. those who are not part of the European Union, as European citizens prefer to work in countries such as Germany, France, Spain and others, where payment is much higher than in Bulgaria, and third-country nationals come to work in Bulgaria for Bulgarian salaries that are higher than salaries in their countries.
The advantages for Bulgarian employers are that these third-country nationals, when they work at a Bulgarian company, work much more, and often better than the available staff, and their efficiency is much higher, that is, they in any case pay the incurred expenses for issuing all necessary documents for their legal residence and work in Bulgaria.
The disadvantages for Bulgarian employers are that unfortunately the legislator has complicated the procedure for lawfully obtaining:
1) Work permit for Bulgaria,
2) “D” visa, and
3) Residence permit for these citizens in the Republic of Bulgaria.
In this situation, some employers take chances and hire such workers illegally, but the maximum time for entering our territory through the customs is 90 days within 180 days, and work is absolutely forbidden and the fine for the employer starts from BGN 20,000/person. Everyone says “we will not be caught”, but then bitterly regrets that they did not follow the legal procedures.
You may be wondering why you need this explanation, and the answer is that you should consider well all risks, costs and future benefits.
The legal procedure for perhaps the most affordable and secure way of hiring third-country workers/nationals is by sending them work abroad:
Obtaining a “Work permit” on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria for a period of one year, with the possibility of a further extension for a total of up to 3 years.
The first and most important condition is that you have signed a Contract with a foreign company outside the European Union (EU), such as (Serbia, Turkey, Ukraine, Moldova, China, Vietnam and many others). This Contract is concluded between your company and the foreign company, which, generally speaking, sends your workers to Bulgaria to work in your company for a period of approximately 3 years, from date xx/yy/2020 to date xx/yy/2023 to provide a certain type of services. It may be in construction, restaurants, fast food restaurants offering exotic foods and other professional fields.
A copy of this Contract is required, which is the grounds for accepting the persons sent to work (third-country nationals); it shall be certified by the parties to the contract with their signature and seal.
It is important to know that there is a requirement regarding the rate of Bulgarian staff employed by foreigners. For medium and small companies the rate is maximum 35% foreigners against 65% Bulgarians, and if more foreigners are needed, a solution may always be found.
A registration document legitimizing the foreign employer – party to the Contract, legalized according to the Bulgarian law. This is a certificate of current status or court registration, which is different in all foreign countries. The important thing is that this document must be notarized or judicially certified in the respective foreign country, after which it must be translated into Bulgarian by a certified translator with a notarized signature of the translator, i.e. legalized.
4 colour photographs of each foreign person 3.5/4.5 cm.
Preparation of all other documents for obtaining a Work Permit on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria is our concern.
Note that a fee of BGN 400 shall be paid to the Employment Agency bank account for each individual and then before the permits are issued.
Obtaining “D” visa is the second stage.
“D” visa entitles the foreign citizen to travel freely on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria, enter and leave as many times as they want within 1 year. It will be issued after obtaining a Work Permit and may also be renewed annually. What is specific about it is that if foreign workers from a third country have a “Work permit” but do not have “D” visa, they will not be admitted to the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria after 90 days, i.e. the “Work permit” does not entitle the foreign national to freely cross the territorial border, but it is a justification for obtaining “D” visa. Here are the costs:
Foreign citizen’s medical insurance. The price is approximately BGN 200 per person for one year, but for complex medical insurance, i.e. for more than two persons, the price is lower. The company that makes this insurance necessarily issues a policy and an invoice. /It is recommended to cover a one year period/. We can help you with this type of insurance.
“D” visa fee = EUR 100 + document processing fee = EUR 25. These fees are paid at the Bulgarian Consular representation office of the respective foreign country.
A place where foreign citizens will live during their stay in Bulgaria. When coming to work in Bulgaria, these people need to be accommodated to live. A copy of a Notary Deed for an apartment/house in Bulgaria where the foreigners will live if the dwelling is the property of the Bulgarian company in which they are sent to work. Provided that the Bulgarian company does not provide its own property, then a notarized house/apartment lease agreement is required, which will accommodate the foreign nationals and a signed Declaration according to paragraph 1, item 20 of the supplementary provisions of the Law on the Ownership Act by the homeowner, declaring that he/she is renting it out. We will prepare this Declaration as needed.
Evidence of financial guarantee for the time of stay in Bulgaria for every foreign citizen. It is necessary to open an account with a Bulgarian bank in BGN or EUR and deposit a cash equivalent of approximately BGN 3000 per person. A statement of the availability of the money and the account shall be provided at the embassy. After receiving the “D” visa, the money may be withdrawn. This amount may be paid by any of the workers, if they have it, or by the Bulgarian company, as an advance payment of salary for future periods.
We may prepare all the additional documents you need, but these will be submitted personally by the foreign nationals at the Bulgarian Consular services.
Obtaining a permit for residence in the Republic of Bulgaria of foreign nationals from the Ministry of Interior; we may also represent you to this institution.
In general, all payments for one third-country worker/citizen for one year will cost you approximately BGN 1,700; please read carefully and note that a foreign worker with perfectly correct documents will cost you approximately BGN 1,700 divided by 12 months of the year, i.e. approximately BGN 140/month. This is money that may be deducted from their salary, gratuity, bonus or at your discretion, so that they will eventually get paid monthly as much as a Bulgarian worker in the same position or even cheaper, this is up to you. We however are obliged to inform you about the entire procedure, which is not easy and not cheap, but is legal and will help you have working employees available.
For a further extension to a total of 3 years, the procedure is the same, but with lighter conditions and lower end price.

如今，寻找人才和高素质人才的问题越来越严重，大部分保加利亚公司从国外进口劳动力。这里国外指“第三国公民”，即不属于欧盟国家的。欧洲公民更喜欢在德国，法国，西班牙等国家/地区工作，这些国家的工资是保加利亚的高，第三国公民来保加利亚工作的原因是保加利亚的工资高于其国家的工资。
保加利亚雇主的优势在于，这些第三国公民在保加利亚公司工作时多，通常比现有员工工作更好。无论如何，他们对雇主值得在保加利亚合法居住和工作所需的所有必要文件所需的费用。
不利的一面是，立法者使合法获取程序复杂化了：
1) - 保加利亚的工作许可证；
2) – D签证
3) - 这些公民在保加利亚共和国的居留证。
些雇主非法雇用此类的工人，但是在180天内，入境的最长时间是90天。绝对禁止工作，对雇主的罚款为每个非法的工作人员从20,000保加利亚列弗起。都说“我们不会被抓到”，但遗憾的是他没有遵守法律程序。
您可能想知道为什么这是一种解释，而答案是要做出正确的判断：风险，成本和未来收益。
借调借用可能是最廉价，最安全的雇用第三国工人/公民的法律程序：
在保加利亚共和国境内获得“工作许可证”，为期一年，并有可能进一步延长至三年。
最重要的条件是您与欧盟（EU）以外的外国公司（例如，塞尔维亚，土耳其，乌克兰，摩尔多瓦，中国，越南和许多其他国家）有合同。合同是您公司与外国公司之间订立的，借调您在保加利亚的工人在您公司中工作例如3年，与2020年XX月YY日到2023年XX月YY日提供某种类型的服务。可以在建筑，饭店，提供异国美食的快餐店和其他专业领域。需要本合同的副本，这是接受借调人员（第三国公民）的基础，被双方通过签字和盖章证明的。
应该知道，对外国人雇用的保加利亚工作人员的比例有一定的要求。对于中小型公司，该比率最高为外国工作人员35％ - 保加利亚人工作人员65％，如果需要更多外国人，总可以找到解决方案。
根据保加利亚法律合法化的注册文件，使外国雇主（合同一方）合法。这是当前状态证明或注册证明，在每个外国不同。该文件必须在相应的国家/地区进行公证或司法认证，然后必须由专业翻译人员将其翻译成保加利亚文，翻译人员的签字要进行公证，即合法化文件。
4张外国工作人员的彩色照片，格式为3.5 / 4.5厘米。
我们公司准备所有其他在保加利亚共和国境内获得工作许可证的文件。
为每名工作人员向国家职业介绍所的银行帐户中现需要支付400保加利亚列弗的费用，然后签发许可证。
2) 第二阶段：得到D签证
D签证使该外国公民可以在保加利亚共和国境内自由驻留，并在一年内自由出入境。D签证在获得工作许可证后颁发，也可以每年更新。如果第三个国家的公民有工作许可证但是没有D签证，90天以后要离开保加利亚，就是工作许可证不给外国公民自由出入境，而是签发签证“ D”的原因。 费用如下：
外国公民的医疗保险-一年的价格大约为每人200 BGN，但超两个人以上一起保险的价格则较低。制作此保险的公司必须签发保单和发票。我们建议一年的保险期限。 我们可以为您提供此类保险。
签证费D = 100欧元+文件费= 25欧元。由相应国家的保加利亚领事馆代表支付。
外国公民在保加利亚居留期间将居住的住房。保加利亚公寓/房屋公证契约附件如果住所是被派工作的保加利亚公司的财产。如果保加利亚公司不提供自己的财产，则需要房主根据《保加利亚共和国外国人法》附加条款第20条第1款的规定，经公证的房屋租赁合同和签署的宣言。我们将根据需要准备这种宣言。
每个在保加利亚驻留的外国公民经济安全证明。有必要在保加利亚银行开立BGN或EUR的帐户，并每人存入约3000 BGN的现金。大使馆应提供有关可用资金和帐户的说明。收到D签证后，可以提取入金。这笔款项可以由任何工人或保加利亚公司支付，作为未来工资的预付款。
我们可以准备您需要的任何其他文件，但这些文件是由外国公民亲自在保加利亚领事服务处提交的。
3) 从保加利亚内政部获得外国人的居留证，我们也可以代表您到该机构。
一般而言，一名工人/第三国国民一年的所有付款将使您花费约1700保加利亚列弗。请仔细阅读，一年中的12个月，每月大约有140美元。这笔钱可以从工作人员的工资或者奖金中扣除，这样最终一个外国工作人员将获得与保加利亚工人相同的工资同一职位甚至更低的。由您自行决定，我们有义务将整个程序告知您，这不容易，不便宜，但这是合法的，而且您可能需要工作人员。
进一步延长到总共3年，该过程是相同的，但条件较轻且最终价格便宜。

什么是A1证书？
如果您在保加利亚驻留的时候交过社会保险，然后在一个或几个不同的欧盟成员国被借调工作， A1证书将帮助您避免双重征税。您将继续在保加利亚交社会保险（为此您支付少的保险金），并且您将在被借调工作的欧国中缴纳税款。在纳税年度结束时，当您提交年度纳税申报表时，您将可以退还一定比例的税款。
由雇主借调到国外工作的保加利亚公民仍受到保加利亚社会保障法律的社会保险。
雇员和派遣到国外工作的雇主都必须满足获得A1证书的要求。
基本要求如下：
您有理由获得A1证书最重要的条件是，保加利亚公司已与欧盟的外国公司签订了合同，以在外国提供某种固定服务、服务的期限和特定地址。
雇员与雇主之间必须有工作合同，以证明他们之间的联系。
保加利亚雇主必须通常在保加利亚领土上工作。雇主公司必须拥有注册的办事处和注册的地址在保加利亚。为此，公司不应是新成立的保加利亚公司，但必须有不少于4个月的存在期间。必要提交至少一份与另一家保加利亚公司的合同附件，以在保加利亚境内执行一项服务或任何类型的活动，以及一份在保加利亚境内进行的活动的发票附件。目的是证明保加利亚的公司在保加利亚活跃。保加利亚境内已实现营业额的要求为总已实现营业额的最低25％。如果保加利亚公司在国外雇用工人，则必须在注册之日起4个月至一年内成立，从注册之日起，该公司在保加利亚的营业额必须至少占其25％，在国外的营业额不得超过其75％。如果公司有一年或一年以上的活动历史，则此百分比在从工人出国工作之日起至倒退一年之前的整个一年期间内有效。
保加利亚剩余的员工人数（不包括行政人员）应不少于公司员工总数的25％。如果公司有100名员工，则至少25名工人必须在保加利亚工作，其余75名工人可以到国外工作。
A1证书的期限不得超过24个月，此后该工人必须返回保加利亚至少工作2个月，并可能再次被借调到国外工作24个月。
在符合上述基本标准和条件后，需要为其借调工人获得A1证书的任何雇主都可以与我们联系以问清情况。
A1证书不是您在欧盟国家工作授权的文件。在欧盟国家工作不需要A1证书。但是拥有其的好处是，它可以为保加利亚雇主省钱，而该雇主（如果没有A1）必须为在国外被借调的工人支付大的金额为了社会保险，而不在保加利亚支付小的金额。另一个特点是，越来越多欧盟公司不允许保加利亚工人进入工地/工作场所，除非他们出示当前的A1证书或颁发该证书的要求。
A1证书颁发给自保人员或企业的经理/所有者。
A1证书还要颁发给跨越两个或多个国家/地区的国际驾驶员。
