The Bulgarian Federation of Radio Amateurs (in Bulgarian, Българската федерация на радиолюбителите) is a national non-profit organization for amateur radio enthusiasts in Bulgaria. The organization uses BFRA as its standard abbreviation, based on the standard Romanization of the Bulgarian name of the organization.

Key membership benefits of the BFRA include the sponsorship of amateur radio operating awards, radio contests, and a QSL bureau for members who regularly communicate with amateur radio operators in other countries. BFRA represents the interests of Bulgarian amateur radio operators before Bulgarian and international telecommunications regulatory authorities.[1]

BFRA is the national member society representing Bulgaria in the International Amateur Radio Union.[2] BFRA was the host organization for the 2006 Amateur Radio Direction Finding World Championships.[3]
