Bulgaria ranks 36th in the world according to the World Bank's "Women, Business and the Law" 2021 report. The index covers 190 national economies. Bulgaria has a score of 90.6 points out of 100 possible on indicators that include mobility, work, payment, marriage, parenthood, entrepreneurship, property and pensions, BTA reported.

Under other indicators, the country receives a maximum score because there are no restrictions on travel, work or owning property for women in this country.
