2025 figures: 633 short-stay Schengen visa applications were lodged at Bulgaria’s embassy in Kyiv, and 517 visas were issued. 105 applications were refused, a refusal rate of 16.9%. That is barely different from 2024 (15.4%). Applications fell by 7% compared with 2024 (679).
Bulgaria issues Schengen visas at 2 locations in Ukraine; this office handled 50% of their 1,266 applications in 2025. Refusal rates elsewhere: Odesa 16.9%, which makes Kyiv 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 Ukraine, 10.7% of applications were refused in 2025; Bulgaria’s rate worldwide was 12.5%. Bulgaria received the 2nd largest number of applications of the 14 Schengen states represented here.
52.8% 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 Ukraine.
