When you start work in Bulgaria you sign a written employment contract ("трудов договор"
); salaries are usually paid by bank transfer. Learn the difference between gross ("бруто"
) and net ("нето"
). To open a bank account you need an ID card or passport. A bank will never ask for your PIN over the phone. This is general information, not legal or financial advice — rules change, so check with your employer, your bank or НАП. Amounts, deadlines and terms in the dialogues are examples.
