Bulgaristan: yolculuktan önce bilinmesi gerekenler

En önemlisi

  • Bulgaria uses the euro: it joined the euro area on 1 January 2026.
  • Schengen entry rules apply; mountain weather differs from the Black Sea coast.

Giriş ve vizeler

Bulgaria follows Schengen short-stay rules: visa-exempt visitors share a 90-day allowance in any 180 days across the area. EES biometric registration takes place at external borders; it is not an online pre-arrival application. ETIAS is not operating; official diplomatic updates expect 2027, with no fixed launch date.

Pasaport geçerliliği: Non-EU short-stay visitors: issued within the previous 10 years and valid at least 3 months after planned Schengen departure.

Sınırda sorulabilecekler

  • Carry evidence of accommodation, onward travel and funds; allow time for external border checks.

Para

Hem nakit hem kart yaygındır. Kartlar daha çok şehirlerde ve turistik yerlerde geçer.

Apple Pay — bazı yerlerde çalışır · Google Pay — veri yok

  • Use euros; older travel pages still describe the lev and may be outdated.
  • Keep cash for smaller purchases and check ATM fees before accepting a withdrawal.
  • Apple lists this country for Apple Pay with participating banks/cards; actual payment also depends on the merchant and card issuer.
