# Working as an accountant in Bulgaria

In Bulgaria, the occupation group "Professionals", which includes accountants, earns ≈ 1,187 EUR/month (gross, 2022). Accountant is not a regulated profession in Bulgaria. Foreign qualifications go through: Employer assesses a foreign qualification for ordinary accounting work. A foreign auditor seeking Bulgarian statutory-auditor status follows the separate audit-act examination and CPOSA register process; that status is not inferred for an ordinary accountant.

- Earnings of the occupation group "Professionals": ≈ 1,187 EUR/month (gross, 2022)
- Regulation: Not marked regulated
- Recognition route: Employer assesses a foreign qualification for ordinary accounting work. A foreign auditor seeking Bulgarian statutory-auditor status follows the separate audit-act examination and CPOSA register process; that status is not inferred for an ordinary accountant.
