From February 2 until April 30, Bulgarian nationals and persons with a permanent or long-term resident status in Bulgaria and their family members will be placed under ten-day quarantine if they fail to show a document for negative test for Covid-19 done within 72 hours before entering Bulgaria. 

Quarantine may be revoked upon presentation of a negative PCR test result performed 24 hours after the entry. Quarantine is revoked within 24 hours from the presentation of the document, reads an order issued today by Bulgaria’s Minister of Health Kostadin Angelov.
