Business Visa from Nigeria to Bulgaria

A non-EU national may obtain a Bulgarian Business visa on the ground of registering a limited company, branch or trade representative office in Bulgaria.
Eligibility requires the provision of a business invitation letter from the Bulgarian company you will be visiting.
This letter will also contain their detailed address, accompanied with the date and actual purpose of your trip.
Proof of any previous business dealings with the company you are meeting up with should be provided.
The short-stay Bulgarian Business visa is a multi-entry visa allowing a stay of 90 days in Bulgaria.
The visa application should be submitted at the nearest Bulgarian embassy or consulate.
The visa processing time can be anywhere between 7 to 10 working days and a visa application fee of $50 is payable.

There are 3 primary instances for which a long-term Bulgarian Business visa (Type D visa) is issued:

for registration of a Trade Representative Office in Bulgaria
for registration of a Bulgarian company employing at least 10 local citizens for no fewer than 6 months.
for registration of a Bulgarian branch employing at least 10 local citizens for now fewer than 6 months.

The most convenient and affordable way for a foreign national to obtain a “Type D” Bulgarian Business visa, and eventually a Bulgarian residence permit is by way of registering a trade representative office in Bulgaria.
The trade representative office is regulated by the Investment Promotion Act (IPA) of Bulgaria.
The long-term Bulgarian Business visa is granted either for 6 or 12 months, and it is mandatory for all non-EU nationals who would like to apply for a Bulgarian residence permit.
The visa processing time is 30 working days and a visa application fee of $100 is payable.
