保加利亚是一个位于欧洲东南部的国家，与希腊、土耳其、马其顿、塞尔维亚和罗马尼亚接壤。保加利亚在2001年加入了《废除外国公共文件认证要求的海牙公约》（通常简称为海牙公约或Apostille Convention）。这意味着与其他海牙公约成员国之间的公文认证过程得以简化。在保加利亚，公共文件只需经过一次官方的“海牙认证”或“加注”（Apostille），便能在所有海牙公约成员国内得到法律承认。由于美国和保加利亚都是《海牙公约》的成员国，所以你的美国文件需要进行海牙认证。这是通过在文件上附加一个称为“认证书”的特殊印章来实现的。在美国，这通常由州政府的州务卿办公室或联邦机构负责。官方语言是保加利亚语，属于斯拉夫语系。如果文件不是用保加利亚语写的，你需要提供一个经过认证的翻译（translation）。在某些情况下，你可能需要在保加利亚国内找到一个被保加利亚政府认可的翻译服务。
