Today, Bulgaria adopts the euro as its official currency. 💶

A new currency, a stronger bond with Europe.

Travel, work, and business will become easier and more connected.

With Schengen now fully in place, this means more freedom, more opportunities, and a shared future.

Progress is not a dream. It is a choice. And Bulgaria has chosen it.

Let's keep moving forward together. 🇪🇺🇧🇬

Hi @geometriquement! Thank you for your comment! This particular social media page is in English as for practical reasons it is not feasible to do it in all 24 official EU languages. You could consider checking out the pages run by our colleagues in the European Commission's Representations in the Member States, which are available for every country and every EU language. Find out more here: link.europa.eu/dhBrwm

Representations in Member States | European Commission

Commission representations perform various functions such as liaising with local authorities and media, organising official visits, and providing political information and analysis.

Dominique dit le voileux

Bien venue à la Bulgarie. Je ne m'associerai pas aux pleurs de certains face à cette adhésion à l'euro. Personnellement, je suis Européen dans l'âme et attaché à ses valeurs. Je suis heureux de pouvoir circuler librement en Europe, de ne jamais me sentir comme un étranger hors des frontières françaises.
