Particular attention is given to temporary protection, as this type of protection will find the widest application for displaced persons from Ukraine who are fleeting the war and who enter Bulgarian territory, seeking refuge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">This article will also touch upon the basic rights of people that have been granted temporary protection and will discuss practical guidelines for the implementation of these rights. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Finally, the article will touch upon practical advice and recommendations provided by the Bulgarian institutions, as well as show useful links and other resources that can aid the people who have been granted asylum or temporary protection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">This article does not constitute legal advice and the author is not bound by the information given.

These different grounds, in turn, lead to the granting of different status to these people. This is important because different statutes imply different procedures and different rights to be obtained by the recipient. This article discusses all the grounds for granting protection as established but the Bulgarian law, and will pay special attention to \u201ctemporary protections\u201d, as this type of protection will find the widest application in relation to displaced persons from the war in Ukraine, who enter the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria to seek protection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">The types of protection are established in the Bulgarian Asylum and Refugees Act. The types of protection are: asylum, refugee status, humanitarian status and temporary protection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">1. <b>ASYLUM<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">a. Characteristics and legal grounds for granting asylum: Asylum is granted to foreigners persecuted for their beliefs or activities in defense of internationally recognized rights and freedoms. The granting of asylum is a type of individual protection &#8211; an assessment is made for each individual and specific case of a request.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">b. Competent authority to consider the request and to rule: The President of the Republic of Bulgaria<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">c. Procedure: The foreigner who seeks asylum should submit a written application to the President of the Republic of Bulgaria. The request may be submitted directly to the Presidential Administration or to another state body, but addressed to the President, and the respective state body shall be obliged to forward it to the President immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u2022 Peculiarity: As the President is the head of state of the Republic and not a body of the executive power, his function and activity are not equivalent to the functions and activity performed by the bodies of the state administration. The rules for administrative proceedings do not apply to the president, there is no deadline for ruling, there is not even an obligation to rule &#8211; i.e. the president is not obliged by law to consider the application submitted to him. The granting or denial of asylum is not subject to judicial review.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u2022 Peculiarity: As the President is a constitutionally established body and head of state of the Republic, there will be no conflict between the proceedings in the event that both an application to the President for asylum and an application for refugee status are submitted, resp. humanitarian status or for temporary protection, to the State Agency for Refugees. This means that there is no conflict in sending two requests simultaneously and in parallel &#8211; to the President and to the State Agency for Refugees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; text-align: justify; background-color: var(--ast-global-color-4); color: var(--ast-global-color-3);\">2. <\/span><b style=\"font-style: inherit; text-align: justify; background-color: var(--ast-global-color-4); color: var(--ast-global-color-3);\">REFUGEE STATUS<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">a. Characteristics: Refugee status within the Republic of Bulgaria is granted to a foreigner who, due to legitimate fears of persecution based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion or belonging to a certain social group, is outside his country of origin and therefore cannot or does not wish to use the protection of that State or to return to it. Granting refugee status is a type of individual protection &#8211; an assessment is made for each individual and specific case of a request. A distinction should be made between a refugee and a foreigner who immigrates to the Republic of Bulgaria for economic, educational, family or other similar reasons. The reason for the refugee to flee his country of origin is because he fears persecution, violation of fundamental human rights or threat to his life and security due to war or natural disaster, i.e. there are well-founded fears of persecution because of race, religion, nationality, political beliefs or belonging to a particular social group. According to the Asylum and Refugees Act, \u201cpersecution\u201d is a violation of fundamental human rights or a set of actions that lead to a violation of fundamental human rights, sufficiently severe in nature or recurrence. \u201cActs of persecution\u201d can be physical or mental violence; legal, administrative, police or judicial measures that are discriminatory or applied in a discriminatory manner; prosecution or penalties that are disproportionate or discriminatory; refusal of judicial protection, which is expressed in a disproportionate or discriminatory punishment; actions directed against persons on the grounds of their sex or against children and others. Unlike refugees, immigrants leave their country and go to another country of their own free will and decision without coercion from anyone or anything, whether under economic, family, educational or other motives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">b. Competent authority <a>to consider the request and rule<\/a>: The Chairman of the State Agency for Refugees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">c. Procedure: A foreigner who wishes to be granted refugee status must submit a written application to the State Agency for Refugees or an oral application to an employee of the State Agency for Refugees. The application can be submitted directly to the State Agency for Refugees or to another state body (e.g. to Border Police), which is obliged to forward it immediately to the State Agency for Refugees for consideration and decision. When submitting the application, the person may request the provision of a translator. No later than 15 days from the submission of the application, the applicant shall be informed in writing in a language he or she understands of the procedure to be followed, of his or her rights and obligations, of the consequences of non-compliance and of all other matters regarding the initiated procedure and its outcome. When applying, the foreigner should present, if possible, his identity documents, which are received and stored by the State Agency for Refugees until the end of the procedure with a final act (a decision that has entered into force). A foreigner who has applied for international protection (refugee or humanitarian status) is registered with the State Agency for Refugees and has a personal file created for him. Upon registration, the State Agency for Refugees collects data on names, citizenship, date and place of birth, gender, marital status and kinship, identity documents and other documents. The foreigner is issued a registration card for a period of three months, which can be extended if necessary. The card contains data about the foreigner, such as status, names, gender, citizenship and others. After registration, a date is set for an interview. The foreigner who has applied for refugee status shall be notified in due time of the date of each subsequent interview. The foreigner is obliged to present all the evidence in support of his \/ her application for international protection until the final ruling, and in case he \/ she does not present it, the ruling is made without this evidence. The interview is conducted in a language requested by the foreigner. When this is not possible, the interview is conducted in a language that he understands. At the end of the interview, the transcript is read to the foreigner, who can comment on it and provide explanations regarding translation errors or inaccurate statements. The protocol is signed by the foreigner, the translator and the interviewing authority. During the interview, the foreigner may be accompanied by a lawyer present. Within 6 months from the initiation of the procedure for granting refugee status, the Chairman of the State Agency for Refugees must make a decision either granting refugee status or denying refugee status. In the event that refugee status is not granted, the need to grant humanitarian status shall be considered ex officio within the same period \u2013 meaning that the foreigner need not apply for humanitarian status if his application for refugee status is denied, as the Chairman of the State Agency for Refugees is obligated in this case to consider granting or denying the foreigner humanitarian status.<\/span> <span lang=\"EN-US\">The decision of the Chairman of the State Agency for Refugees, by which he denies refugee status or denies humanitarian status, is subject to appeal within 14 days of its receiving by the foreigner or his lawyer, in front of the administrative court at the present address of the foreigner. The decision of the administrative court, which confirms the decision of the chairman of the State Agency for Refugees, is subject to cassation appeal before the Supreme Administrative Court. The decision of the Supreme Administrative Court is final and is not subject to appeal. Decisions of the Chairman of the State Agency for Refugees granting refugee status or granting humanitarian status are not subject to appeal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u2022 Peculiarity: In the event that a foreigner applying for refugee status (or humanitarian status, see below) that has already been granted temporary protection (see below), the procedure for granting refugee status (or humanitarian status) shall be suspended until the period of temporary protection has expired. After the expiry of the granted temporary protection, the proceedings on the submitted application for refugee status (or humanitarian status) continue in accordance with the law (see above).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">d. Rights and obligations during the proceedings of the persons who have applied for refugee status: During this procedure &#8211; from the moment of submitting the application until the entry into force of a final decision granting or denying refugee status &#8211; refuge seekers have the following rights:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; background-color: var(--ast-global-color-4); color: var(--ast-global-color-3);\">1. the right to remain on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">2. the right to move within a predefined zone on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">3. right to shelter and food;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">4. right to the same social assistance as Bulgarian citizens;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">5. right to the same health insurance, affordable medical care and free use of medical care as Bulgarian citizens;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">6. right to psychological assistance;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">7. right to receive a registration card;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">8. right of translator or interpreter.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">It should be added that if more than 3 months have elapsed since the application for protection was submitted and the proceedings have not yet been completed for reasons beyond the control of the refuge seeker, he has the right to access to the labor market. The foreigner also has the right to be consulted and represented by a lawyer in the course of the proceedings &#8211; the legal aid provided may be free (under the Legal Aid Act) or paid by the foreigner with personal funds with accordance to the free and explicit agreement that has been made with the lawyer. The foreigner or his representative has the right to access to all information that has been gathered in the course of the proceedings and the right to access to his personal file (although there are instances in which access to information may be denied \u2013 e.g. if this could be a risk to national security or impede the examination of the application for international protection).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">In addition to his rights, the foreigner has the following main obligations:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">1. to comply and not to interfere with officials in the performance of their official duties;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">2. to hand over all documents owned by him, which may serve to establish his identity and citizenship, as well as the manner of his movement and entry into the Republic of Bulgaria;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">3. when he does not possess the documents under item 2, he has to certify his identity, date and place of birth, marital status, as well as if he is accompanying minors and certify their information as well, by a declaration before an official, for the accuracy of which he bears criminal responsibility under Art. 313 of the Bulgarian Criminal Code;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">4. to protect the property provided to him for use (for non-protection of the property a fine of BGN 50 to 200 may be imposed);<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">5. not to leave the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria without the permission of the State Agency for Refugees;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">6. to assist in clarifying his case by communicating complete and reliable information to the relevant officials;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">7. to give fingerprints; and others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">To these main obligations we should add the general obligation of foreigners to comply with and implement the Constitution and the laws of the Republic of Bulgaria.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">It should be noted that after obtaining refugee status, foreigners have a wider set of rights that will not be covered in this article.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">3. <b>HUMANITARIAN STATU<\/b><span lang=\"EN-US\"><b>S<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">a. Characteristics: Humanitarian status is granted to a<span lang=\"EN-US\"> foreigner <\/span>who does not qualify for refugee status and who is unable or <span lang=\"EN-US\">is <\/span>unwilling to receive protection from his or her country of origin, as he or she may be at real risk of serious harm, such as death penalty or execution, torture, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. Humanitarian status is also granted in the event of war, when there are serious and personal threats to the life or identity as civilians due to violence resulting from internal or international armed conflict. The perpetrators of these actions may be the <span lang=\"EN-US\">S<\/span>tate; parties or organizations that control the <span lang=\"EN-US\">S<\/span>tate or a significant part of its territory; non-state actors (in certain hypotheses). It is important to note that humanitarian status is subsidiary, <span lang=\"EN-US\">meaning that<\/span> it applies to the extent that a person does not meet the requirements for obtaining refugee status. Not only that, but, as stated above, in case <span lang=\"EN-US\">that it is<\/span> f<span lang=\"EN-US\">ou<\/span>nd that there are no grounds for granting a foreigner refugee status, the Chairman of the State Agency for Refugees is obliged to decide ex officio whether there are grounds for granting humanitarian status to the foreigner. It is possible for a foreigner to be denied refugee status but to be granted humanitarian status.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">b. With regard to the <span lang=\"EN-US\">competent <\/span>authority, the procedure and the rights and obligations of the <span lang=\"EN-US\">foreigner<\/span> who <span lang=\"EN-US\">has <\/span>initiated the procedure for granting <span lang=\"EN-US\">humanitarian status<\/span>, the <span lang=\"EN-US\">same rules apply as for <\/span>obtaining refugee status<span lang=\"EN-US\"> (mentioned above)<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">4<span lang=\"EN-US\">. <b>TEMPORARY PROTECTION<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">a. Characteristic: Temporary protection is provided in case of mass entry of foreigners who are forced to leave their country of origin due to armed conflict, civil war, foreign aggression, human rights violations or large-scale violence on the territory of the respective country or in a separate area from it and who cannot therefore return there. Temporary protection aims, in the event of a mass influx or threat of mass influx of displaced persons from third countries who cannot return to their country of origin, to provide immediate and temporary protection, especially when there is also a risk that the asylum system will collapse <span lang=\"EN-US\">due to i<\/span>nab<span lang=\"EN-US\">ilaty<\/span> to consider all requests <span lang=\"EN-US\">of asylum seekers <\/span>without adversely affecting<span lang=\"EN-US\"> the proper<\/span> functioning<span lang=\"EN-US\"> of this system<\/span>. This exceptional measure is taken in the interests of the above-mentioned affected persons and other asylum seekers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Temporary protection is <span lang=\"EN-US\">a <\/span>group protection. It is not provided individually, but as a result of a government decision that affects the situation of an indefinite number of foreigners who have been displaced from their country of origin. It is the large number of asylum seekers that is the main difference between temporary protection and humanitarian status.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">b. Competent authority to consider the request and rule: The decision to introduce temporary protection is taken by the Council of the European Union. In accordance with <span lang=\"EN-US\">this decision<\/span>, the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Bulgaria issues a decision for granting temporary protection on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria. Upon a request<span lang=\"EN-US\">,<\/span> submitted by a foreigner seeking temporary protection in the Republic of Bulgaria, only a formal check of the circumstances set forth in the application and their compliance with the grounds for granting temporary protection set forth in the law shall be made. If the necessary grounds are present<span lang=\"EN-US\"> and the legal requirements met<\/span>, the State Agency for Refugees is obliged to ascertain the granted temporary protection and to issue a registration card to the foreigner to whom the temporary protection has been granted. The card has a temporary effect &#8211; it is valid until the expiration of the period of temporary protection set by the Decision of the Council of the EU.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following the Council Implementing Decision (EU) 2022\/382 of 4 March 2022 establishing the existence of a mass influx of displaced <span lang=\"EN-US\">people<\/span> from Ukraine within the meaning of Article 5 of Directive 2001\/55 \/ EC and introducing temporary protection, with Decision \u2116 144 of <span lang=\"EN-US\">10 <\/span>March 2022<span lang=\"EN-US\">, given by <\/span>the Council of Ministers<span lang=\"EN-US\">,<\/span> temporary protection was <span lang=\"EN-US\">officially <\/span>granted to the displaced <span lang=\"EN-US\">people<\/span> from Ukraine on the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria.
