MSP/MSB Compliance Support for Bulgarian Businesses
ABM Global Compliance provides complete MSP/MSB compliance services for money services businesses in Bulgaria. From payment licence applications with the BNB and AML/CFT frameworks under MAMLA to ongoing regulatory support, we keep your business licensed, compliant, and growing.
Bulgarian MSB Compliance Handled Properly
The Bulgarian market rewards money services businesses that take compliance seriously. the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB) expects properly prepared licence applications, and the Measures Against Money Laundering Act imposes detailed AML/CFT duties covering customer due diligence, monitoring, and reporting. Weak compliance slows authorisation, strains banking relationships, and attracts supervisory attention that growing businesses can rarely afford.
ABM Global Compliance carries that weight for you. Our specialists prepare the BNB licence applications, build AML/CFT frameworks around MAMLA, and support your business through inspections and ongoing supervision. We work with money services businesses across all 27 EU member states, which means proven approaches, realistic advice, and one partner wherever growth takes you.

Common MSB Licensing Questions
Do MSBs need a licence in Bulgaria?
Yes. Most money services activities in Bulgaria require authorisation or registration with the BNB under PSD2, plus AML/CFT compliance under MAMLA. We identify exactly what your model needs.
How long does Bulgarian MSB licensing take?
Timelines with the BNB vary by licence type, typically between three and twelve months. Well-prepared applications that anticipate regulator questions consistently move faster through the process.
What AML rules apply in Bulgaria?
MAMLA implements the EU AML directives, requiring customer due diligence, transaction monitoring, suspicious activity reporting, an appointed compliance officer, and regular staff training for money services businesses.
Can a Bulgarian licence be passported?
Yes. A payment institution authorised in Bulgaria can passport its services across the EU. We advise on structuring and manage the passporting notifications with the BNB.
Do you support businesses after licensing?
Absolutely. Most Bulgarian clients stay with us for ongoing compliance support, regulatory reporting, policy updates, AML audits, and staff training long after their licence is granted.
