DOMESTIC MONEY TRANSFERS
The service Domestic Postal Money Transfers allows natural persons and legal entities to send amounts to recipients (natural persons and legal entities) in cash or to a bank account.
Domestic postal money transfers are two types – standard and express. Both types are accepted and paid out at all post offices.
Standard transfers are delivered as postal items and are paid out at the post office serving the recipient’s address. Express transfers are made online and can be paid out at any post office regardless of the way they are addressed. In the case of express transfers a fee of 1,20 BGN is paid in addition to the transfer fee regardless of the amount of the transfer.
The maximum amount of domestic postal money transfers is 6000 BGN.
Senders of postal money transfers can use additional services:
- Advice of delivery (payment) – upon payment of an additional fee the sender receives a written advice of delivery signed by the recipient.
- Poste restante/On demand – the sender only specifies the post office, the postal code and the full name of the recipient. The transfer is paid out upon the recipient’s request.
- Message to the Recipient – the sender sends a message to the recipient along with the money transfer upon payment of an additional fee.
- SMS notification of an available express money transfer for the recipient and SMS notification for the sender of an express money transfer notifying when it is paid or not paid.
