FICADEX BULGARIA

About FICADEX BULGARIA

Established in Varna in 1996 under a different name and renamed in 2004 after a partnership with a French expert accountant, this practice combines independent audit, bookkeeping and tax work under one roof. Its accounting side is aimed at small and medium-sized businesses, mainly those with foreign shareholders or participation, and follows Bulgarian accounting law alongside IFRS where required. The Varna team is made up of finance and accounting graduates, several of whom work in French, Russian, English, German or Spanish, and the website itself is offered in six languages. Through its French partner it is linked to an audit and accounting holding with offices in Europe and Africa. The managing director is a registered auditor and former quality-control inspector at the national accountants' institute. The firm does not list company incorporation among its services.
