Rouen’, France) and Sanacorp Pharmahandel AG (‘Sanacorp’, Germany) acquire within the meaning of
Article 3(1)(b) of the Council Regulation joint control of a newly created company constituting a joint
venture (‘Millennium’) by means of contribution of assets and activities.

Notifications by the Republic of Bulgaria concerning visa reciprocity (1)

(2007/C 75/03)

Brussels, 13 February 2007

File No 429

The Permanent Representation of the Republic of Bulgaria to the European Union presents its compliments
to the Council of the European Union and in accordance with Article 2 of the Council Regulation (EC)
No 851/2005 amending Regulation (EC) No 539/2001 as regards the reciprocity mechanism states that
nationals of the Republic of Bulgaria are subject to visa requirements for the following third countries listed
in Annex II of Regulation (EC) No 539/2001: Australia, Bolivia, Brunei, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand,
Panama, Singapore and USA.

Costa Rica and Malaysia exempt Bulgarian nationals from visa requirements for a period of thirty days
which cannot be regarded as full reciprocity.

The Republic of Bulgaria has signed non-visa agreements with Israel and Paraguay which are not in force
owing to on-going ratification procedures. Bulgarian nationals are still subject to visa requirements for those
two countries, which is also an element of temporary non-reciprocity.

A Note Verbale with an identical text is being sent to the Commission of the European Union.

The Permanent Representation of the Republic of Bulgaria would take this opportunity of renewing to the
Council of the European Union the assurances of its highest consideration.
