How to find your Bulgaria consulate
Closest is not always correct. Each Bulgaria consulate covers a defined jurisdiction — a group of U.S. states officially assigned by the Bulgaria foreign ministry.
You must use the consulate that covers your state of residence, regardless of physical distance. Check the jurisdiction map on each consulate’s individual page in this directory.
For procedures requiring biometrics, in-person appearance or citizen-specific verifications, this rule is strict. For mail-in services like document authentication or passport renewal, some consulates accept applications from outside their jurisdiction.
