E-Invoicing in Bulgaria
Bulgaria requires public sector entities to receive EN-compliant e-invoices but does not mandate supplier issuance. The major development is mandatory SAF-T reporting beginning January 2026 for large enterprises, with phased rollout through 2030. Bulgaria joined the eurozone in January 2026.
Mandate Status
| Phase | Status | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| B2G receiving | Live (Nov 2019) | Public sector must receive EN 16931 e-invoices |
| SAF-T (large) | Live (Jan 2026) | Large enterprises (>BGN 300M turnover or >BGN 3.5M taxes) |
| SAF-T (all VAT) | Jan 2030 | All VAT-registered including micro-enterprises |

Implementation Notes
SAF-T is the main compliance requirement. Bulgaria's e-invoicing landscape is minimal, but SAF-T reporting is the real integration challenge. Monthly submissions (General Ledger, AP/AR, invoices) are due by the 14th of the following month. Submissions require a qualified electronic signature (QES). The NRA provides a 6-month grace period for each phase rollout. No unified B2G platform exists — there is no mandate for suppliers to issue e-invoices.
