What this means

Bulgaria operates a National Tourism Register with categories including categorised tourist sites.

The Ministry of Tourism has publicly discussed verification of short-term rental sites against registered accommodation-place data, including platform cooperation signals.

Implementation status

The current public material points to accommodation categorisation/registration and enforcement against unregistered overnight stays rather than a published Regulation (EU) 2024/1028 implementation package.

Short-term rental monitoring appears connected to the broader registered-accommodation base and tourism statistics.

Technical interface

No public Bulgaria-specific SDEP OpenAPI documentation, source code, sandbox, API portal, or platform onboarding process is currently available.

A Bulgarian implementation may reuse accommodation-register identifiers if the National Tourism Register becomes the registration source for EU STR reporting.
