At an extraordinary meeting, the National Council for Trilateral Cooperation will discuss the changes in the regulation on business trips in the country.

The daily travel allowance amount has not been updated since 2008.

The changes envisage that the daily travel allowance in the country will increase from BGN 20 to BGN 40.

By agreement with the employer, up to BGN 120 per day can be determined.

Per diems will not be paid only when a full-day free meal is used at the place of the business trip, and accommodation allowances - when free accommodation is used, the project also provides.

It was published for public consultation at the end of January.
