Migrant pressure on the Bulgarian borders has increased by over 40% since the beginning of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. This became clear from the annual analysis of the Main Directorate „Border Police“.

Over 168,000 attempts to enter our country illegally were prevented last year. Bulgarian border authorities detained 2,298 third-country nationals at the entrance, at external and internal borders, which shows an increase of 66% compared to the previous year. 1,915 persons were caught for illegal entry outside the zone of the border points, and 383 at the border crossing.

Most of those detained for violating the state border are citizens of Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq and Morocco.
