This section covers some basic information about gas, electricity and water supply within Bulgaria. If you are renting property, please consult your landlord or lettings agency for local utilities information. Where information has been difficult to find, we have included useful links.
Electricity
In Bulgaria the voltage is 220 volts AC (50 cycles).
Plugs are of the round two-pin continental type, while lamp fittings are the screw type.
Electricity is billed according to the amount used. Bills arrive monthly by post. In rented accommodation these are usually in the landlord's name.
Payment can be made through a Bulgarian bank account, at your local post office, online or using a debit card.
Central heating is paid monthly at a fixed amount. At the end of the year a reading is taken, and the customer is either credited or charged the balance due.
