Bulgarian documents are **in Cyrillic** , and the registration certificate has two parts: the **част I** (small talon) is in the car, the **част II** (large talon) with the owner — registration needs both. Because of the Cyrillic script, the bilingual sales contract is especially important here. - **TWO PARTS** — Свидетелство за регистрация — част I and част II — both are needed for registration. - **CYRILLIC SCRIPT** — Translation risk — A bilingual contract avoids the need for a certified translation. - **NO CUSTOMS DUTY** — EU member state — Registration tax and transfer duty do apply, though. ## Which documents are needed for a car imported from Bulgaria? | Hungarian name | Bulgaria equivalent | | --- | --- | | Vehicle registration certificate | Свидетелство за регистрация на МПС, част I | | Vehicle title | Свидетелство за регистрация на МПС, част II | | Proof of technical inspection | Протокол от годишен технически преглед (ГТП) | | Certificate of conformity | COC / Сертификат за съответствие | Plus, in every case - bilingual sales contract or original invoice - the owner’s personal documents - for a company, a company extract and specimen signature [Bulgarian–Hungarian sales contract A downloadable bilingual contract template.

Registration tax and transfer duty are still payable, though. Bulgarian documents do not always state the environmental class (Euro number) unambiguously.

The official documents follow a uniform EU format, so their translation is usually not required. **Is част I enough?** No. Registration also needs the original част II (the large talon); that proves ownership. **Does it matter if the Bulgarian car was imported from elsewhere?** Yes, it is worth checking: West European imports are common on the Bulgarian market. The date of first registration determines both the depreciation of the registration tax and the vehicle’s history. **How long does registering a Bulgarian car take?** With complete papers and a priority slot, as little as one day.
