Which jobs and sectors qualify for the Bulgarian seasonal worker route?

The seasonal worker scheme is designed for industries whose workload peaks at certain times of year. The eligible sectors centre on agriculture, forestry and fisheries, and on hospitality such as hotels and restaurants.

If your role is in a sector that is not on the seasonal list, or the work is year-round rather than tied to a season, this pathway will not apply and you would need a different work authorisation. Always confirm with the employer that the specific role has been registered as seasonal before you make travel plans.
