Abstract: The paper focuses of the coordination mech­anisms between the various state institutions in Bulgaria in the adoption of framework positions, instructions and positions, necessary for an ef­fective participation of Bulgaria in all stages of EU decision-making process. Special attention is paid to the national coordination mechanism, established with government decree No. 85 from 2007 which comprises three levels of coordina­tion – work groups, the Council for European Affairs and the Council of Ministers. Ten years after the creation of this mechanism, the paper outlines the strong and the weak points in its functioning. The coordination on matters of the CFSP and the development assistance which lay outside of the national coordination mecha­nism is also covered.
