In Bulgaria, the procedure for acquiring an inheritance is sufficiently regulated. All formalities must be followed. For example, you can receive an inheritance by law or if there is a will.

Among the degrees of kinship in Bulgaria, the following lines of potential heirs stand out:

• Second: nephews, grandchildren, uncles/aunts.
• Third: the most distant relatives.

The procedure for obtaining an inheritance begins with the submission of documents on the basis of which the applicant for inheritance can be recognized as a legal heir.

• Register the property owner.
