Visa & Entry

Spanish passport holders enter Bulgaria visa-free as EU citizens. You can stay indefinitely, but if you plan to remain longer than 90 days you must register with the local migration office within 90 days of arrival. A valid passport or Spanish national ID card is all you need at the border.

Bulgaria joined the EU in 2007 but is not yet a full Schengen member for land borders. Air and sea border checks with Schengen were lifted in March 2024, so flights from Spain land without passport control. Land border checks may still apply if you cross into Bulgaria overland from a non-Schengen country.
