If you have a residence permit in Latvia, you can enter Bulgaria without obtaining a Schengen or national Bulgarian visa, but you can stay in this country for no more than five days.

Those who do not have a residence permit in one of the EU countries need to obtain a double or multiple Schengen visa in order to enter the territory of Bulgaria. Since July 16, 2014, the country does not allow foreigners with a disposable Schengen.

To get a Bulgarian visa, you need to submit a completed questionnaire, a passport, one photo, a travel document to the Consulate. To travel with children you will need a birth certificate.
