In Bulgaria, the vignette requirement is applicable to all vehicles with a maximum authorized mass of up to 3,500 kg. This excludes motorcycles, mopeds, and similar vehicles. However, if you’re traveling with a caravan or trailer, you may need an additional vignette for it, depending on the combined maximum authorized mass. If the total weight of your vehicle and the attached trailer or caravan exceeds 3,500 kg, it is essential to obtain a separate vignette for the license plate of the trailer or caravan. This ensures compliance with Bulgarian road regulations and avoids any potential issues during your journey.
Bulgaria vignette has the following validity period options:
- Weekly: Vignette validity is for 7 days from the start date
- Monthly: Vignette validity is for 30 days from the start date
- 3 Months: Vignette validity is for 90 days from the start date
- Yearly: Vignette validity is for 365 days from the start date
