I am from Argentina and I would like to know whether I can enter Bulgaria.
I overstayed in the Schengen area and when I exited Greece, on my way to Turkey, I was told that have a penalty of 1200€ or a 4-year entry ban.
As I understand it, countries like Bulgaria, Romania and Croatia are part of the EU, but are not yet Schengen, correct?
I want to travel this summer in the Balkan Peninsula but I don't know if my ban includes the joiner states.
Note: Bulgaria and Romania are currently in the process of joining the Schengen Area.
Note: A visa is generally not required for Argentine nationals visiting Bulgaria.

I didn't pay, they told me I must pay only if I wanna go in again... I signed some papers but didn't get any with me...

The thing is I tried to enter again anyway, love is sometimes stupid... They didn't let me in and told me again about my penalization and refuse my entry. This time I got a paper saying the reason why I got rejected is because I've already been 3 months in a 6 months period in member countries of the UE. doesn't say about any penalization.

Bulgaria has access and full use of the Schengen Information System (SIS) that supports external border control and law enforcement cooperation in the Schengen States.
Bulgaria, in its efforts toward full Schengen status, is able to access the SIS information from within its border protection and passport and visa control system. While your citizenship doesn't require a visa to enter Bulgaria, your Schengen ban would show up when you present for entry at a border.
