1For a first-time Bulgaria Category C theory sitting under Ordinance No. 38, Article 40, how many questions are in the computer-based paper?
A.15 questions
B.20 questions
C.40 questions
D.30 questions
Explanation: Ordinance No. 38, Article 40 sets a 30-question theory paper for candidates seeking Category C for the first time. That count is not the size of any practice bank. Shorter 15-question papers belong to Article 41 sittings such as Category C1.
2What is the maximum number of points available on the first-time Category C theory test?
A.30 points
B.57 points
C.100 points
D.66 points
Explanation: Article 40 of Ordinance No. 38 awards a maximum of 66 points for all correct answers on the 30-question Category C paper. The pass mark is a separate figure: at least 57 of those 66 points.
3What is the minimum score needed to pass the first-time Category C theory test?
A.At least 50 of 66 points
B.At least 57 of 66 points
C.At least 60 of 66 points
D.A perfect 66 of 66 points
Explanation: Ordinance No. 38, Article 40 treats the theory test as passed only when the candidate has at least 57 of the 66 available points. Fifty-six points is a fail even if most answers were right.
4How much time does Ordinance No. 38 allow for the first-time Category C theory paper?
A.20 minutes
B.45 minutes
C.60 minutes
D.30 minutes
Explanation: Article 40 gives candidates 30 minutes to complete the 30-question Category C theory test. Article 41's shorter upgrade and C1 papers are timed at 20 minutes, so do not mix the two clocks.
5Compared with first-time Category C, how is the Category C1 theory paper structured under Ordinance No. 38, Article 41?
A.The same 30 questions, 66 points, and 30 minutes
B.15 questions, a 35-point maximum, a 30-point pass mark, and 20 minutes
C.40 questions in 40 minutes with an 80 percent pass mark
D.A Code 95 case-study paper under Ordinance No. 41
Explanation: Article 41 currently sets Category C1 at 15 questions, 35 maximum points, at least 30 points to pass, and 20 minutes. First-time Category C stays on the longer Article 40 paper (30 questions, 66 points, 57 to pass, 30 minutes).
6A first-time Category C candidate finishes with 56 of 66 points. What is the result?
A.Pass, because 56 is more than 80 percent of 66
B.Pass, because only 10 points were lost
C.Fail, because the pass mark is at least 57 points
D.The sitting is void and must be rescheduled
Explanation: Article 40 requires at least 57 of 66 points. Fifty-six is one point short, so the result is a fail. Percentage shortcuts such as '80 percent' are not the published rule; the legal threshold is the raw point total.
7A Category C candidate sits the theory test in an IAAA exam room. What state fee per candidate does Tariff No. 5, Art. 111(1) charge?
A.50 BGN
B.150 BGN
C.20 BGN
D.100 BGN
Explanation: Tariff No. 5, Art. 111(1) charges 20 BGN for each candidate when the theory test runs in an IAAA exam room, which is where Ordinance No. 38, Art. 11(3) requires theory sittings to take place. That is about EUR 10.23 at the fixed changeover rate of 1 EUR = 1.95583 BGN after Bulgaria adopted the euro on 1 January 2026. The Category C practical test is charged separately at 20 BGN per candidate under Art. 111(2), and driving-school tuition is a private charge.
8How does the Category C licence theory test relate to Code 95 (initial qualification for professional drivers)?
A.They are the same IAAA sitting; a Category C pass prints Code 95 automatically
B.Code 95 is a shorter retake of the same 30 Category C questions
C.Category C theory is Ordinance No. 38; Code 95 initial qualification is a separate exam under Ordinance No. 41
D.Code 95 replaces Category C theory for every goods-vehicle driver
Explanation: The Category C theory test is the licence-knowledge exam under Ordinance No. 38. Hire-or-reward professional driving of C/CE vehicles also needs the initial qualification (Code 95) under Ordinance No. 41. Passing one does not award the other.
9Under Road Traffic Act Article 150a, which motor vehicles fall in Category C?
A.Goods vehicles with maximum authorised mass not exceeding 3,500 kg
B.Motor vehicles other than categories D and D1, with maximum authorised mass over 3,500 kg, designed for not more than 8 passengers plus the driver
C.Any vehicle that can tow a trailer over 750 kg
D.Buses designed for more than 8 passengers plus the driver
Explanation: Article 150a places in Category C motor vehicles other than D/D1 whose maximum authorised mass exceeds 3,500 kg and that are designed for not more than 8 passengers plus the driver. Buses with more passenger seats are Category D or D1, not C.
10What ordinary minimum age does Road Traffic Act Article 151 set for driving Category C or CE vehicles?
A.16 years
B.18 years
C.24 years
D.21 years
Explanation: Article 151 sets 21 years as the ordinary minimum age for Categories C and CE. Eighteen is the ordinary minimum for C1 and C1E. Separate Automobile Transport Act rules on professional qualification may allow earlier C driving in defined cases, but 21 remains the Road Traffic Act default for C/CE.

About the Bulgaria Theory Test C Exam

Bulgaria's Category C theory test is the computer-based knowledge exam for goods vehicles over 3,500 kg. Ordinance No. 38 Art. 40 sets 30 questions, a 66-point maximum, a 57-point pass mark, and 30 minutes. IAAA publishes six Category C themes covering tachographs and driving time, goods-transport documents, load safety, contracts, vehicle dimensions, and accident measures. Road Traffic Act Art. 21 as amended by DV No. 64/2025 sets Category C and CE limits at 50/80/90/90 km/h. Professional use of C/CE vehicles for hire or reward also requires the separate Code 95 initial-qualification exam under Ordinance No. 41.

Bulgaria Theory Test C Study Tips from Top Performers

1Memorise the first-time C format: 30 questions, 66 points, 57 to pass, 30 minutes.
2Use the current C/CE table 50/80/90/90. Do not quote pre-2025 motorway 100 km/h for Category C, and do not use Category B's 140 km/h motorway figure.
3Drill tachograph and Regulation 561/2006 driving-time rules; they are Theme 1.
4Know the 2.55 m / 4.0 m / 12 m dimension set from the official Category C vehicle-requirements theme.
5Code 95 is a different exam — do not treat CPC case studies as part of this licence-theory sitting.
