More and more international students are choosing Bulgaria as a destination for higher education thanks to its high-quality universities, affordable tuition fees, and opportunities within the European Union. However, the procedures for university admission and obtaining a student visa can often be complex, requiring multiple documents and strict compliance with Bulgarian immigration regulations.
Global Trud Bulgaria provides complete assistance for international students applying to Bulgarian universities, including document preparation, legalisation, translations, and obtaining a long-term Type D visa for study purposes.
What Is a Student Visa for Bulgaria?
The Bulgarian student visa (Type D visa) allows non-EU citizens to reside long-term in Bulgaria for the purpose of studying at an accredited Bulgarian university, college, or educational institution. After arriving in Bulgaria, the student may apply for a long-term residence permit.
According to the Bulgarian Foreigners Act, foreign nationals may enter and reside in Bulgaria when they possess a valid passport, visa, and documents proving the purpose of their stay.
