What documents are foreign citizens required to have to be admitted to a medical establishment on the territory of Bulgaria?

Citizens of EU countries coming to Bulgaria are required to have a European Health Insurance Card or a replacement certificate proving their entitlement to the emergency or urgent medical assistance every EU citizen is entitled to.

All other citizens coming from third countries need to get in touch with the respective Regional Health Inspectorate which will assist them. Against payment they can receive all kinds of medical care at healthcare establishments on the territory of Bulgaria.
