International Trade Law
Bulgaria’s international trade policies are largely determined by the fact that the European Union (EU) and the Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC) are its main trading partners. In 2000, the total trade turnover (imports plus exports) between Bulgaria and the EU was $5,320.3 million (approximately 47.1 percent of the total trade turnover of Bulgaria), and $3,431 million between Bulgaria and the CEEC countries (approximately 30.3 percent of the total turnover). As a result, the thrust of Bulgaria trade policies is aimed at EU integration and enhancing its trade with the CEEC bloc and neighbors, Turkey and Macedonia.
