- The Bulgarian Tax Authority has released the technical documentation for the SAF-T file, with implementation starting in January 2026 for large enterprises, January 2028 for mid-sized enterprises, and January 2030 for all other taxpayers. Three types of SAF-T files will be required: a monthly file due by the 14th of the following month, an annual file due by June 30th, and an on-demand file for audits. The files must be submitted in XML format. The SAF-T aims to improve transparency, combat tax evasion, and facilitate interactions between tax authorities and taxpayers. Businesses are encouraged to prepare early by updating their accounting systems and training staff.
