→ Bulgaria visa for Russian citizens

Bulgarian passport holders can conveniently secure an electronic visa (e-visa) for travel to Russia, allowing for a stay of up to 30 days for purposes such as tourism, business, transit, or other specific reasons. While obtaining one of these four visa types is straightforward, with the e-visa typically costing around $40, travelers should anticipate longer journeys as direct flights between Sofia and Moscow are currently suspended, necessitating indirect routes through third countries. Despite these logistical adjustments, Bulgarians often find cultural familiarity, from the shared Cyrillic alphabet to historical connections, making the journey a unique experience.
