Bulgaria: Tax-Efficient Regimes and Sectors

BACK TO BULGARIA INFORMATION: BUSINESS, TAXATION AND INVESTMENT

Bulgaria Tax-Efficient Business Forms

Corporate income tax in Bulgaria is already very low (10%), but in areas of high unemployment the government will reduce corporation tax to zero to encourage investment. This applies to manufacturing industries provided that the site and company’s assets are located in the “depressed region”. Corporate income tax relief is granted for up to five years. Businesses that establish a research and development facility can also receive attractive incentives.

There have been problems in the country with some companies entitled to reimbursement of VAT having to wait for many months before being refunded. The situation has now improved and as a further boost to business start-up, the amount of capital required to start a new venture has been dramatically decreased. There are signs, too, that the government will look to reduce the standard VAT rate to 16% in 2010.

Bulgaria Tax-Privileged Business Sectors

The Bulgarian Investment Encouragement Act (2007) sets out procedures for encouraging investment in Bulgaria. There are a number of Free Tax Zones in Bulgaria where goods can be stored and moved without liability for excise duties and VAT. The Customs Act sets out the conditions applicable to Free Tax Zones and tax warehouses.
