Everything Turkish citizens need to know to apply for a Bulgaria family/friend visit visa: who it's for, key documents, processing time and tips.
A family/friend visit visa is issued to visit a relative or friend living in that country. The host (inviter)’s documents are central to the process.
Bulgaria is a neighbouring Schengen route with Black Sea coasts, affordable holidays and historic cities.
Document requirements vary by your profile (employee, business owner, student, retired). See the full Bulgaria document checklist for the complete, profile-based list.
What matters is that the host legally resides in that country and can document it; being a citizen is not required.
Yes. The host can cover accommodation and costs; in that case they must provide their own income/bank documents.
