Green card is OK, don't forget you will need a visa which you buy online (unless you are a BG national). Main roads are are very good driving standards not so. _________________ Everyone makes me happy, some when they arrive, others when they leave. |

Thanks...used to live over there so aware of driving conditions!!..however more than 7 years since driving there and never in a BG registered car hence the questions regarding the 3rd party ins.
Thanks again. |

Jake u can also buy a visa at the border crossing.
Where are u driving too..as you will need a toll sticker for the toll roads which can be purchased on the toll roads. |

I thought buying a visa at the crossing was stopped when the price went up but may be wrong. I had to get a 3 monthly visa printed in my passport, with additional photo, as I was driving there commercially. _________________ Everyone makes me happy, some when they arrive, others when they leave. |

You shouldn't ask about the whereabouts of Constantinople Seedy - "that's nobody's business but the Turk's" |
