2025 figures: 983 short-stay Schengen visa applications were lodged at Bulgaria’s embassy in Belgrade, and 949 visas were issued. 14 applications were refused, a refusal rate of 1.5%. That is barely different from 2024 (2.1%). Applications rose by 39% compared with 2024 (705).
Bulgaria issues Schengen visas at 2 locations in Serbia; this office handled 58% of their 1,705 applications in 2025. Refusal rates elsewhere: Niš 0.6%, which makes Belgrade the highest of the group. 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 Serbia, 5.7% of applications were refused in 2025; Bulgaria’s rate worldwide was 12.5%. Bulgaria received the 5th largest number of applications of the 20 Schengen states represented here.
70.9% of the visas issued here were multiple-entry visas, valid for several trips. 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 Serbia.
