Summary/Abstract: It is a fundamental rule in the constitution of a democratic state to contain provisions related to changes to the basic law. Such was the understanding of the creators of the Constitution of the Republic of Bulgaria from 1991, who provided for such a legal regulation. It is contained in Chapter Nine of our basic law, entitled "Amendment and addition to the Constitution. Adoption of a new Constitution" - Art. 153 to Art. 163. Challenges in legal regulation related to changes in the Constitution are outlined according to material criteria and are fastened with special procedural guarantees in our basic law. In the exposition below, attention will be paid to some main points contained in the constitutional legal framework for revision of the Constitution by the National Assembly. The very fact that this activity is different from the usual daily legislative function of the parliament shows that the National Assembly is faced with the challenge of carrying out the changes in the basic law, considering all the features and specifics laid down in the constitutional law.
