There are several grounds for the acquisition of Bulgarian citizenship.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0Bulgarian citizenship by descent.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The most common and straight forward is through\u00a0Jus sanguinis,\u00a0<\/em>by descent. If at least one of your parents is a Bulgarian citizen, you can apply for Bulgarian citizenship by descent. You will have to apply for a Bulgarian origin certificate from the State Agency for Bulgarians Abroad. After completing this stage, the next step is the citizenship application with the Ministry of Justice.<\/p>\n

Aforeign national will have to apply for Bulgarian citizenship at the Bulgarian embassy of his current country of origin Although the procedure can be easily explained, the process is not simple, and will require legal understanding and consulting.<\/p>\n

Bulgarian citizenship by marriage:<\/strong><\/h4>\n

An applicant for Bulgarian citizenship by marriage can apply when he meets the following criteria:<\/p>\n

1. Marry and remain legally married to a Bulgarian citizen for at least 3 years.<\/p>\n

2. Receive a permanent residency permission from the Bulgarian authorities and reside in Bulgaria for at least 3 years before applying for naturalization.<\/p>\n

Bulgarian citizenship by naturalization<\/strong><\/h4>\n

A person who has resided in Bulgaria legally for a time defined by law (mainly between 3-5 years, depending on the grounds on which the person is applying) can apply for Bulgarian citizenship by naturalization.\u00a0 Obtaining citizenship by naturalization is more complicated and challenging than to obtain Bulgarian citizenship by descent.<\/p>\n

While a person of Bulgarian descent can obtain Bulgarian citizenship relatively quickly, within 1.5-2 years, and sometimes without visiting Bulgaria at all, a person who would like to receive Bulgarian citizenship by naturalization will have to follow a much more rigorous process. Applicants for Bulgarian citizenship by naturalization must prove that they enough funds, income, and an occupation that enables them to support themself in Bulgaria. Furthermore, they have to obtain a Bulgarian language proficiency certificate from the ministry of education to prove their fluency in Bulgarian.<\/p>\n
