Measures for micro and small enterprises to counter the effects of Covid-19 will be financed with 156 million BGN (about 80 million euros), the government has decided. The procedure for selection of candidates will be carried out by the Ministry of Economy and the National Revenue Agency.

About 29 million euros are allocated to support tourism, which was severely affected by the pandemic. 2.5 million euros go to subsidize each seat in charter flights to Bulgaria for tourism and the rest goes for tour operators and travel agents.

EUR 25.5 million will be distributed between hospitals that have already set aside more than half of their beds for the treatment of patients with Covid-19, as well as those that will take this measure.
