Bilingual Sofia Assistant Needed
Budget: €8 – €30 EUR
I regularly need documents processed in Sofia and want to work with a dependable freelance assistant who is equally comfortable in Bulgarian and English. Your first set of responsibilities revolves around three recurring actions:
• Notary visits focused on document certification ‑ this covers both personal paperwork (passports, birth certificates, etc.) and company-related files such as contracts and invoices.
• Submitting those certified documents to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for full authentication so they are valid abroad. The MFA step required is the “authentication of documents for use abroad,” not an apostille or diplomatic certification.
• Completing consular legalisation at the Embassy of Vietnam, ensuring every stamp and signature is in place before the papers return to me.
When each stage is finished I will need a quick scan of the stamped pages for confirmation, followed by couriering or handing over the originals as agreed.
This collaboration is intended to grow; future assignments might include additional embassy work, translation pick-ups, or other on-the-ground tasks in Sofia. I appreciate clear communication, precise timelines, and transparency on any official fees you pay up front (which I reimburse immediately). If you already know reliable notaries or MFA contacts, mention that in your reply, along with your general availability during the week.
