2024 figures: 4 short-stay Schengen visa applications were lodged at Bulgaria’s embassy in Berlin, and 4 visas were issued.

Bulgaria issues Schengen visas at 3 locations in Germany; this office handled 24% of their 17 applications in 2024. Each office serves the applicants who live in its own consular district, so the rates also reflect who applies where, not only how strictly files are assessed.

Across all Schengen consulates in Germany, 3.0% of applications were refused in 2024; Bulgaria’s rate worldwide was 9.4%. Bulgaria received the 4th largest number of applications of the 13 Schengen states represented here.

Bulgaria only began issuing Schengen visas on 31 March 2024, so its 2024 figures cover part of the year. The statistics count applications, not people, and include every nationality that applies here, not only citizens of Germany.
