UK buyers
Buying a flat, a house or a holiday home in Bulgaria while living in the UK.
For foreign buyers
Buying in Bulgaria from abroad? We'll guide you through it.
Glassora helps buyers from the UK, the EU and elsewhere buy a property, a car or a company in Bulgaria — with checks based on official sources, licensed partner lawyers and support in English at every step.
Who it is for
EU buyers
Citizens of other EU and EEA countries buying property or a car, or buying or setting up a company.
Buyers from other countries
Some rules differ for buyers from outside the EU — for example on owning land — so a partner lawyer explains your options before you commit.
Remote buyers and investors
If you can't be in Bulgaria for every step, we coordinate on the ground and keep you informed in English.
What we help with
One point of contact, from the first search to the keys — and the paperwork after.
Finding and checking
We help you shortlist and run Glassora checks on the property, car or company, using the cadastre, official registers and other public sources.
Partner lawyers
We coordinate with licensed partner lawyers who review the documents and advise you. Legal advice comes from them, not from Glassora.
Translation and communication
We arrange translation of key documents — certified translation where it is required — and help you communicate with sellers, agents, banks and institutions.
With you at the deal
We can accompany you, in person or remotely, to viewings, meetings and the signing at the notary, so you understand each step.
Registration and formalities
Together with the lawyer, we help organise the steps after signing, such as registrations and declarations to the local authorities.
After the purchase
Practical help once you own it: utilities, local tax, insurance and similar day-to-day matters.
How it works

- 02
Written agreement
We agree the scope of our help, the commission and the terms individually, in a written contract, before any work starts.

The deal
We coordinate translation, communication and the notary appointment, and accompany you to the signing.
- 05
After the deal
We help with registration and the practical steps until you are settled.
How we are paid
For this assistance Glassora charges a commission. Its amount and the terms depend on the case and are agreed individually in a written contract before any work starts.
Lawyers' and notaries' fees, translation costs, state fees and taxes are separate and are not part of our commission unless the contract says otherwise.
Before we start, we may ask for identity documents, as Bulgarian anti-money-laundering rules may require.
Legal work and advice
Glassora is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. The legal work for a deal — legal advice, contracts, the notary deed and registration — is done by licensed lawyers and notaries.
Our checks are based on official public sources and are not a legal opinion. We do not guarantee the outcome of any transaction.
