Hi Maricar,

And yes, it is possible to find a job in Bulgaria. Actually there are many opportunities right now and lots of companies are looking for employees.

In your case a hindrance will be the residence and the work permit. I suppose you do not have EU passport.
You will have to apply for a residence and the company that hires you will apply for a work permit.

I own a Recruitment Agency and if you explain better what kind of job you need and what are your qualifications I might be able to help.

Regards,

Kristiann

Hi,
聽 聽 聽I'm an English teacher. How difficult would it be for me to get a job in Veliko tarnovo and can I get residency.
I think there's always some demand for native (English) speakers in (English) language schools.

The pay is not particularly enticing though, I got 12 leva per hour when I did some pre-Covid. You can probably get paid more money doing remote teaching to (for example) Chinese students.

You didn't get your residence permit yet? You're just using your visa-free allowance?

You can get residence as an employee, but this rather depends on the employer giving you a full-time job with an official employment contract... and being willing to deal with the immigration bureaucracy (including getting a work permit from the Ministry of Labour). @kristiann is a bit of an expert on this, so it might be worth asking him for some guidance.

It's probably a lot easier to do it as a retiree, if you have proof of a pension.

If no pension, and your Bulgarian is now pretty good after some years here, then self-employed could be another option.

I'd guess that you should apply for a D visa next time you're in Canada... or perhaps you can do it in Romania (can't be Bulgaria, and you need this visa before you can apply for residence).

Otherwise, you could consider getting the "no lucrativa" residence visa in Spain which is pretty easy to get... and Spain is a lot closer than going back to Canada every 3 months. Plus it starts the 5 years countdown to getting your EU permanent residence.
Good advise. Also my grandfather's were both born in Ireland. I think I might be able to get an Irish passport easily.
If you're applying do it sooner rather than later. I put mine in at the start of November and just got a letter today saying basically nothing I sent was any good. They're asking for original documents which I already sent and even new photos. I was really careful making sure everything was in order and I live in N. Ireland so it shouldn't be that hard.聽 I might just renew my British one.
Oh, absolutely, if you can grab yourself an EU (Irish) passport, that will be a LOT easier. In which case, all of the EU (not just humble Bulgaria) will be your oyster...

@Bhavna sorry聽 x

Finding a job in Bulgaria is quick and easy, with or without skills. But you do need to be willing to actually work, and not just kill time.


HOWEVER, getting working visas for a third-country citizens (non BG and non EU) is slow and annoying. I have been in this process for months now as an employer trying to recruit two "EU-outsiders", so you can learn from my unfortunate experience below.


The administrative process is incredibly time consuming and unnecessarily demanding. To avoid doing all yourself and hope for faster results, there are indeed work agencies that may do the application for you, but it is the employer that needs to contact them and you are still required to provide a bunch of translated documents. Also those agencies charge the amount of around 2000 BGN. And it will still take no less than 3 months.


  1. First you need to apply at a company that will approve you and will be willing to go through all the trouble to hire you.
  2. Then you send a bunch of documents, all legally and notary translated, either to Bulgarian or at least to English, all originals and not copies, therefore over the post and not email.
  3. Be patient and persistent as they will most likely require additional documents that were not sent at the beginning.
  4. The whole process, if done flawless, takes no less than 3-4 months. But due to our cumbersome system it will most likely take 4 to 6-7 months to a year. During this time you might have found a better opportunity or some of your documents would have expired and you need to create them all over again (police record, etc.). And it is all for nothing.


I wish you luck and patience if you are set on Bulgaria.

Hi,

You could check with the local electricity provider - I believe they are hiring. The language will be a problem, but not a stop.
