\n Internal Restrictions:
\n*Travel in Bulgaria: Travel to/from airport or other port of arrival. There are no restrictions on travel between cities.
\nRoad: Restrictions apply at many European land borders, including with Bulgaria, which affect road and rail travel. You should check the travel advice for any countries through which you are considering travel before you depart.
\n*Public spaces and services: COVID-19 related restrictions remain under review. The police are strictly enforcing measures and failure to comply could result in a fine.
\nIf you test positive for COVID-19, you will be required to self-isolate for 7 days. Additionally, there is a mandatory 5-day self-isolation requirement (starting from the date of last contact with the infected person) for anyone who has been in close contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. During self-isolation you are not permitted to leave Bulgaria.
\nThe 5-day mandatory self-isolation period for close contacts may be revoked for close contacts who are vaccinated with a booster dose and who present a negative PCR test taken 72 hours after the mandatory self-isolation period commenced. The mandatory self-isolation requirement is revoked from the day after the registration of the negative result. Results will automatically be registered by the test centre when they produce the result certificate.
\nIt is mandatory to wear a face mask in medical establishments including pharmacies, opticians and social care institutions. These measures apply across the country and replace the previous regional rules. These measures do not apply to children under the age of 6. It is no longer necessary to present a COVID-19 vaccination certificate to visit indoor venues.
\n*If you test positive for COVID-19, you may need to stay where you are until you test negative. You may also need to seek treatment there.\n\n", "Y": 42.757311, "X": 25.237625, "AddInfo": null}
