Why Bulgaria
Sofia is our lowest-cost location. Bulgaria annulled blanket retention in 2015 and now requires per-request judicial authorisation. Good Frankfurt path at 34 ms, EU jurisdiction, and the best price per gigabyte of NVMe on the network.
- Blanket retention provisions annulled as unconstitutional 2015
- Retention now requires prior judicial authorisation per request 2015
- Hosting liability exemption under the DSA regime 2024
The trade-off
Cheapest euro-adjacent capacity we operate and a real anti-retention precedent, but it is still an EU member state with full mutual-recognition obligations. Transit is thinner than Amsterdam.

§03 FAQ
Frequently asked questions
01 How much is a vps in Bulgaria?
Prices start at $4.00 monthly at SOF-1 in Mladost, Sofia. Top configuration runs $98.00. Every plan includes DDoS scrubbing, a routed IPv6 /64, and full root access.
02 Why choose Bulgaria for this?
Sofia is our cheapest location. Bulgaria dropped blanket data retention in 2015, so authorities now need per-request judicial approval. It suits budget VPS fleets, CI runners, build farms, staging environments, and bulk storage in the EU.
03 What is the catch with Bulgaria?
The trade-offs: Bulgaria is still an EU member, so mutual recognition obligations apply, and transit is thinner than Amsterdam. You do gain the lowest cost and a genuine anti-retention precedent.
04 Do you require identity verification in Bulgaria?
No. Across all 16 locations, we use the same token-only model: no name, email, phone, or ID at any point, and settlement exclusively in cryptocurrency.
