Driving in Bulgaria: licence and road rules
What you need to rent a car and drive here as a visitor. Rules change — check with your rental company before the trip.
An EU/EEA licence is fully valid in Bulgaria, just like at home.
A UK licence is valid on its own in Bulgaria — no IDP needed.
You need an International Driving Permit together with your US licence.
US licences are valid only together with an IDP; rental companies may ask non-EU drivers for an IDP.
An e-vignette is required on national roads outside towns, bought online (bgtoll.bg) or at fuel stations. Bulgarian rental cars normally have one already.
Tip: Road quality varies sharply outside the main motorways, so watch for potholes; mountain roads to Bansko and Borovets need winter tyres or chains in winter.
