How to Keep Bulgarian Records, Company Files, and Property Documents Organised

How to Keep Bulgarian Records, Company Files, and Property Documents Organised

Index

Introduction

The cost of poor document organisation usually appears at the worst possible moment: a tax query, a bank review, a property issue, or a legal or compliance deadline.

What should be preserved

Foreign owners should usually keep organised files around:

  • company records
  • accounting records
  • tax records
  • payroll records
  • property documents
  • contracts
  • insurance and vehicle records

Retention realities in Bulgaria

Official Bulgarian guidance indicates long retention periods for some document categories, including:

  • payroll records: 50 years
  • financial statements and certain accounting registers: 10 years
  • some other accounting information carriers: 3 years

That is one reason record organisation should be treated as a system, not as a folder afterthought.

Common mistakes

Common mistakes include:

  • storing everything only in personal email
  • keeping no master archive
  • losing track of original versus translated documents
