BimmerDude Dimusianka-Waild They are rare nowadays. Used to be more popular in the past, but less people want to give the money (or just don't want the attention) now.
Sorry, forgot, how much does it cost to buy such (111111) individual plate?
The problem is that the license plate stays with the car. I have heard individual plates are transferable, but I have never seen a transferred one, so I don't know how true that is.
Also, under the current Bulgarian laws, if the owner of the car changes their address to a different province, or the car gets a new owner from a different province, it needs to have plates from that province. So you would lose the individual plate.

Bad idea of your government not to give opportunity to transfer the plates do you know the reason of such non popular measure? They do not need one more way of earning money?

They seem to make enough profit by taking all the plates they unmount from cars. Even if your car has foreign plates, they forcefully take them from you when you register it on Bulgarian plates. After that they say they send the plates back to their countries, but I think they are just scrapped for profit. (They also cut the plates in half after taking them off).

I think they could receive much more profit from plates transfer. If they allow to leave and transfer plates, people will buy more combinations, demand creates supply, and next step is to raise the price,- benefit to the government through the charging funds to “piggy Bank” And nowadays as I understood, Bulgarian really is not interested to spend money for individual plates,because if you smash your car, you will lose plate? And worst situation,that you can do it next day after purchase...
Recently they changed the price of plates with two repeating numbers (like BT 3838 KP, CB 7888 HM, A 5665 KA etc.) to 300 leva (150€, ~11000 руб.). Previously the price was 10 times less.
If you damage the plate you could get a new one made, it is not a problem. But if you lose the car, you lose the plate.

It is too expensive for such plates!!! Bad news, there will be less interesting plates next year...
