Why Choose Bulgaria for Company Formation
Company Formation in Bulgaria remains one of the most attractive options in the European Union for international entrepreneurs and UK-based businesses seeking efficiency and stability.
Bulgaria is a full EU member state, allowing companies to operate freely across the European Single Market. It offers one of the lowest corporate tax rates in the EU at 10%, alongside a straightforward and transparent Bulgarian tax system for companies. Foreign nationals can own 100% of a Bulgarian company, with no requirement for a local shareholder or director.
The company registration in Bulgaria process is governed by the Bulgarian Commercial Register, ensuring legal certainty, predictability, and investor confidence. With modest minimum capital requirements and a clearly defined legal framework, Bulgaria provides an ideal environment for startups, SMEs, consultants, and international investors looking to establish an EU-based company efficiently.
