Non-EU Workers

slant-separator

Bringing non-EU workers to Romania is a time-consuming process, and can take up to 4 months. There are 3 stages in the process:

  1. Work approval
  2. 1-year work visa (type D)
  3. Work permit & personal residence in Romania

Upon completion of the last step, a non-EU worker can work for the employer who initiated the procedure. The employment relationship can, of course, be resolved at any time. A new employer does not need to re-initiate the whole procedure, if the original sponsor of the visa releases a specific document to an employee. After one year, an employment visa can be renewed for about 100 euro incl. our service.
