The period of double circulation of the euro and the Bulgarian lev will be one month from the moment of the introduction of the single European currency. The Bulgarian People's Bank is obliged to exchange banknotes and coins in levs for euros at the official exchange rate free of charge, in unlimited quantities and without time limit. Within a month before the introduction of the euro, all prices of goods in the country must be indicated in two currency units.
