Rental accept Bulgaria
Under the rental accept Bulgaria the lessor (or the landlord) provides to the lessee (or the tenant) the proper to use the property for a specified term, and therefore the lessee – to pay him the agreed rental price.

According to the Bulgarian law, even an oral rental agreement is valid. It is, however, strongly recommended to conclude the rental agreement in writing.

In case of economic lease contract the verification of signatures by a notary and therefore the registration of the contract with the Property Register also are advisable. The advantage of such registration is that the contract remains valid and binding for the new landlord for the term stated in it in event of transfer of the property.

The only exception to the above is an agricultural lease contract. A written form with certification of signatures by a notary is required for its validity. As well, these contracts must be registered with the Property Register and within the local Agriculture Municipal Office.

Usually, the tenant pays the rent for the primary month and a deposit in amount of 1 month’s rent at the time of the signing of the contract. When the contract expires the deposit must be refunded to the tenant. just in case that there are any outstanding obligations of the tenant (i.e. unpaid electricity and water bills for the property), the lessor keeps the deposit and use it to hide these.

The parties also can stipulate a provision for the revision of the rental price (i.e. the changes within the inflation index, changes within the rental market prices, etc.).

The tax on income is 10%.
