Local taxes and fees for your property

Check of outstanding local taxes and fees – check the obligations in the municipality at the location of your property.

It is common case that the foreign owners, especially who have rural properties in Bulgaria did not pay the due local taxes and fees for a long period of time. It is mainly due to lack of information and understanding, difficulties in the payment process, due to high bank fees for cross-border transfers, inability to verify obligations, etc. This often results in issuance of fines and finally enforcement actions by bailiffs.

We can arrange payment of outstanding local taxes and fees by specifying the exact amount as of the day of the payment   – £30 including VAT

Property Tax Registration

Very often, after purchasing the property foreign owners have not registered their property in the local tax office within the legal deadline/2 months from the date of purchase/. Upon finding the property not declared within the two-month statutory term after the acquisition transaction, the municipal administration shall charge the tax due for a 5-year period. We provide the service in the presence of a document of ownership of the property and a power of attorney from the owner.

If you purchased your property or land in Bulgaria in the last 15 years and particularly before 2011 you would have formed a Bulgarian company to be able to own it. As in any other EU country, according to Bulgarian law, the company is required to prepare a set of audited annual accounts at the end of each financial year which have to be submitted in the Bulgarian National Revenue Agency by last day of March and in Bulgarian Trade Register by end of June of each calendar year.

Although your Bulgarian company may not be a ‘trading’ company / which is the common case/ you are still required to submit an annual set of accounts to the Bulgarian authorities. Since 2017, the changes in the rules and regulations have eased the process and released the duty of the “non-trading” companies for submitting full annual accounts. Companies that fall in this category are now obliged to electronically submit set of forms and declarations into Bulgarian Statistic Institute and Registry Agency.

Preparation of the full required pack of documents and submitting by our accountancy team  will cost you £ 190
