Bulgaria’s authorities are not planning to lift the maximum insurable earnings. The minimum pension will become EUR 150 per month. The minimum monthly salary will increase from EUR 312 to EUR 322. Pensioners will continue receiving allowances to the tune of EUR 25 per person until the end of March 2021. 

Next year will be difficult in terms of revenues. However, we are in a procedure in which we can defend a certain deficit and Bulgaria’s Minister of Finance will soon present to the public a balanced budget with wise policies which take reality into account. We are not discussing to borrow new loans, this country’s Minister of Labor and Social Policy Denitsa Sacheva said for BNR.
