We help your company—whether operating in Turkey or abroad—take a secure step into the European market by opening a Trade Representative Office (TRO) in Bulgaria. Registered with the Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI), these offices serve as a showcase for your brand in Europe and are the most prestigious way to secure residency permits for company executives.
The primary purpose of representative offices is to conduct market research, participate in trade shows, carry out promotional activities, and represent the parent company. Since they do not engage in commercial activities, managing them operationally is extremely easy and advantageous.
The greatest benefit of opening a representative office is that it immediately entitles the appointed representatives to apply for a long-term “Type D Visa” in Bulgaria and, subsequently, a “Residence Permit.” This allows you to bring your family with you.
Commercial representative offices do not engage in direct trade or issue invoices in Bulgaria. For this reason, they are not subject to local commercial taxes such as corporate income tax or VAT; instead, they serve as a cost-free promotional base.
Having an official presence within the European Union elevates your corporate credibility to the highest level in meetings with European business partners and in market research.
We personally handle the preparation of your parent company’s certificate of incorporation, commercial register extract, tax registration certificate, and powers of attorney for representatives, as well as their certified translations and Apostille certification processes.
We submit your application to the Bulgarian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (BCCI) using the prepared documents, obtain the official certificate for your representative office, and complete your registration with Bulstat, the national statistical agency.
We handle the process of renting a virtual office in Bulgaria so that your representative office can provide a legal address, and we manage your mail and document tracking.
