Bulgaria is host to 152 foreign diplomatic missions sent by 106 countries. As in most countries, the diplomatic community is centred on the capital, Sofia, where 104 of these missions are based. Missions are also present in Varna and Plovdiv.
Not every mission offers the same services. The list below includes 75 honorary consulates, 71 embassys, 5 consulate generals and 1 permanent representation. An embassy is the main mission and normally sits in the capital; a consulate general or consulate handles visas and passport work for its own region; an honorary consulate offers limited help and usually cannot issue visas. If you are unsure which one to approach, our guide to embassies and consulates explains the difference in plain language. Read the guide →
