List of Anti-Semitic Laws in Bulgaria That Were Abolished at the End of World War II. An official document referring to: “All the laws, decrees, and regulations issued from January 23, 1941, to September 9, 1944, concerning the confiscation of movable or immovable property that belonged to Jews, cultural, political, and other organizations, and Jewish legal entities, which were seized or expropriated for the benefit of the state under the laws issued against the Jews…”. The report details sections related to Jewish lands that were confiscated, properties taken from Jews for municipal use, Jewish properties sold at public auctions which are now to be returned to their rightful Jewish owners, uncollected rent for Jewish properties during the war years, changes made to Jewish properties confiscated by the state that are to be restored to their original condition, cancellation of forced sales of Jewish movables conducted by state representatives, and more.
It was also determined that the Consistory of the Jews in Bulgaria would be granted a sum of 30 million Bulgarian lev to compensate those affected by property confiscation that could not be returned, and new regulations were set regarding the purchase of shares from Jews, prioritizing Jewish sellers over non-Jewish ones. Additionally, the official abolition of racial laws was declared.
At the beginning of World War II, the Kingdom of Bulgaria declared neutrality, but later joined the Axis powers in an attempt to regain territories lost under the Treaty of Neuilly-sur-Seine, which ended World War I. During the war, Bulgaria was governed by an anti-Semitic and pro-fascist government led by Bogdan Filov, appointed by King Boris III. In September 1939, Bulgaria expelled 4,022 Jews who lacked Bulgarian citizenship as part of the “campaign to expel foreign nationals.” In March 1943, the Bulgarians deported 11,343 Jews from Thrace, Vardar Macedonia, and Pirot to their deaths at the Treblinka extermination camp. The end of the war brought an end to the monarchy in Bulgaria, turning it into a Soviet satellite state.
