The current position
Bulgaria has used the euro since 1 January 2026. The fixed conversion rate is EUR 1 = BGN 1.95583. This is a review of an already completed currency transition.
Where a review helps
We recommend reconciling amounts across current contracts, internal budgets and accounting systems. Mark historical figures separately to avoid mixing currencies in management reports.
The next step
List documents and systems that still contain BGN amounts.
