Bulgaria Proposes Zero VAT on Essential Foods Amid Inflation and Euro Adoption

  • Bulgaria’s National Assembly is considering a draft bill to set VAT at 0% on essential food and beverage products.
  • The measure would cover items in the official “small consumer basket,” including bread, milk, dairy, meat, and poultry.
  • It is intended to help households cope with inflation and rising food prices.
  • The proposal comes as Bulgaria prepares to adopt the euro on 1 January 2027, increasing attention on consumer costs.
  • The bill follows similar VAT reductions in other countries amid food price pressures linked to the Gulf conflict and supply chain disruptions.
