Summary/Abstract: Transfer of rights, which were gained by Turks who live in Bulgaria or returned to Turkey in the social security context, has been a problem between Turkey and Bulgaria for years. In this sense, while Turkey aims to solve the problem with bilateral agreement; Bulgaria doesn’t show a positive approach. Acquis communitaire became directly binding for Bulgaria due to the full membership of EU by 1 January 2007 (with the exceptions reserved). In this case, Turks who live in Bulgaria or returned to Turkey would enjoy from the social security law, which forms a part of acquis communitaire.
