Vadim Sukharev, the founder of a design studio, aimed to participate in EU tenders and hire European specialists. Visas and residence permits didn’t provide that opportunity. With Relocitizen ’s support, Vadim obtained an EU passport and was able to open an office in Sofia.
Vadim Sukharev, the founder and driving force behind a successful design studio specializing in premium commercial space design, contacted Relocitizen with a clearly formulated business request. His goal was to overcome geographical and visa barriers that limited the studio’s development and hindered work with clients from EU countries. Vadim sought not only to legalize his status to participate freely in European tenders and professional exhibitions but also to create a stable operational base in the EU to attract talented European specialists to his team and execute large-scale projects.
Relocitizen specialists carefully analyzed the profile of this successful entrepreneur. It was revealed that his grandfather was Bulgarian and had lived in the territory of modern Moldova. This detail allowed us to offer the client participation in the simplified Bulgarian citizenship program, which opened up a wide range of new opportunities within the European Union. Relocitizen lawyers conducted significant work to restore some of Vadim’s documents and prepared his dossier for submission to the Bulgarian Ministry of Justice.
Obtaining Bulgarian citizenship became a turning point for Vadim Sukharev. His new EU citizen status allowed him to quickly register a legal entity in Sofia, rent a prestigious space for a showroom and office, and hire his first employees — a local project manager and accountant. This immediately increased the trust in his studio from major European developers. Vadim emphasizes that Relocitizen specialists approached his task not as a standard migration procedure but as an important strategic decision.
