Bulgarian Medical and Technical Translation by Physicians and Engineers

Pharmaceutical registration, distribution and pharmacovigilance

Bulgarian pharmaceutical manufacturers are among the most active suppliers to the Georgian market, and their regulatory files run through us: the кратка характеристика на продукта (summary of product characteristics), листовка (package leaflet), labeling, certificates of pharmaceutical product, GMP certificates from the Bulgarian Drug Agency, module 1 documentation, variation applications and pharmacovigilance reports, translated into Georgian for the Georgian regulator with terminology aligned to ИАЛ and EMA language on one side and the regulator's on the other. Georgian pharmaceutical exporters to Bulgaria need the reverse. Clinical trial materials - протоколи, информация за пациента and информирано съгласие (with back-translation for ethics committees), брошури на изследователя, case report forms and safety reports - are translated between Bulgarian and Georgian or from English into both, and for medical devices we translate инструкции за употреба, technical documentation and декларации за съответствие.

Епикризи and medical records for treatment in Bulgaria and Georgia

Georgian patients referred to Bulgarian hospitals - Пирогов, Александровска and the Military Medical Academy in Sofia, the university hospitals in Plovdiv and Varna, Bulgarian cardiac and oncology centers and spa resorts - need their Georgian records translated into Bulgarian before the first consultation: the epicrisis (епикриза), imaging and histology резултати, лабораторни изследвания, treatment protocols and vaccination records. Bulgarian residents and visitors treated in Georgian clinics, and Georgian students at Bulgarian medical universities using Bulgarian healthcare, need the reverse for their личен лекар, the NZOK and their employer or university. Our medical translators are practicing or former physicians and pharmacists; they keep ICD-10 codes, INN drug names, dosages and units exactly as written and never reinterpret a diagnosis, and they expand the abbreviations of Bulgarian епикризи on first occurrence. Translations are certified for clinics and notarized for insurers and the Georgian Social Service Agency.

NZOK, NOI, ТЕЛК disability and social documents

The NZOK asks for translated Georgian clinic invoices, епикризи and prescriptions when reimbursing treatment received in Georgia; Georgian insurers ask for Bulgarian records translated into Georgian. Cross-border social documents - болнични листове, ТЕЛК disability decisions, майчинство documents, NOI medical reports and the S1 and S2 forms - are translated and notarized for Georgian employers, the Revenue Service and the Social Service Agency, and for Bulgarian authorities assessing Georgian nationals working in Bulgaria. Professional drivers' medical certificates and psychological assessments for the Black Sea corridor are translated for licensing authorities on both sides. These files mix clinical and financial content, so a physician translates the medical part and an accountant checks invoices and amounts.

Transport, vehicles, ferries and port equipment

The transport corridor generates technical documentation: vehicle type approvals and registration documents, tachograph and ADR documentation for dangerous goods, ferry safety and loading procedures, port equipment manuals at Poti, Batumi, Varna and Burgas, and the maintenance records that insurers and inspectors ask for after incidents. We translate these between Bulgarian, Georgian and English with mechanical and transport engineers on the team, keeping identifiers and regulatory references intact, and we translate the safety and HSE documentation - инструкции за безопасност, работни процедури, incident reports - for mixed Georgian and Bulgarian crews at ports and logistics terminals.

Energy, machinery, БДС standards and certification

Bulgarian energy and engineering companies work on Georgian grid, renewable and heating projects, and Bulgarian machinery - food processing, packaging, agricultural equipment, electrical equipment - operates in Georgian facilities. We translate инструкции за експлоатация и поддръжка, техническа документация, схеми, training materials and spare parts catalogs between Bulgarian, Georgian and English with mechanical, electrical and civil engineers on the team, keeping part numbers and warning symbols intact and delivering in the original layout. БДС and БДС EN standards, ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 and 27001 certificates, audit reports and наръчници по качество are translated for tenders, for Bulgarian customers auditing Georgian suppliers and for certification bodies; протоколи от изпитване, сертификати за калибриране and декларации за съответствие for laboratories and regulators; and Bulgarian-language patent applications entering Georgia through Sakpatenti require Georgian translations of the описание, претенции and реферат in patent language, with the reverse for Georgian applicants filing at the Патентно ведомство.

Drawings, catalogs and quality control

Engineering drawings in AutoCAD DWG and DXF and PDF plan sets carry title blocks, notes and legends that must be translated without disturbing the drawing; we work inside the files and return them with layers, blocks and dimensions intact, and can deliver bilingual drawing sets. Каталози, технически листове and technical proposals are translated with attention to units, tolerances and material grades and laid out in your design files. Every medical and technical file passes through a subject specialist, a second bilingual reviewer and a numerical check comparing units, decimal separators (Bulgarian commas versus Georgian points), dosages, part numbers and reference ranges line by line against the source. Source errors are flagged rather than silently corrected, glossaries are agreed with your engineers or clinicians before bulk work begins, and certificates of accuracy and notarization are available for regulators, insurers and courts.

A note specific to this pair: Bulgarian and Georgian medical students cross in both directions - Georgians at Bulgarian medical universities, Bulgarians in Georgian English-language programs - and their clinical records, vaccination cards and health certificates are translated each year for enrollment, practice placements and residence permits. We keep each student's file consistent from admission to graduation so the records match when the diploma is finally translated for recognition.
