Bulgaria

Opioid Substitution Treatments: available

 Foreign patients can receive treatment for up to one month. Treatment fees vary depending on dosage and possible checkups. Continued dosing might sometimes not be possible due to a shortage of medication. Therefore, patients are strongly advised to contact a treatment service well in advance of their planned journey.

Importation of opioids: possible

It is possible to bring up to 30 daily doses of methadone and other opioid substances into Bulgaria for personal use as medication. Travellers must carry with them a doctor’s letter endorsed by the health authorities of the country of residence plus a valid medical prescription.
