Bank account assistance in Bulgaria

A new Bulgarian company pays in its capital before registration. The Ministry of Economy explains that the funds in the escrow account represent the capital of the company that has to be incorporated, so a bank account is the first practical step, not the last. For foreign owners the bank will ask about the beneficial owners, the source of funds and the business plan.

Firms that offer help prepare the documents, introduce you to a bank and sometimes join the call. Ask which banks they work with, whether you must attend in person, what happens if the application is declined and whether the fee is part of a formation package. No firm can promise approval.

61 firms list bank account assistance for Bulgaria: 39 accounting firms, 18 corporate services providers and 4 law firms. English and Bulgarian are each offered by 49, Russian by 13 and German by 10. E-commerce is named by 13 firms. To plan the company first, see company formation in Bulgaria or the Bulgaria guide.

Frequently asked questions

Can I open the capital account from abroad?

Some banks allow remote steps and others require a visit or a representative with a power of attorney. A firm can tell you which route each bank currently accepts.

What documents do Bulgarian banks ask foreign owners for?

Typically passport copies, proof of address, company documents and information on ownership and activity. Banks may add their own questions, so allow time for follow-ups.
