Immigration & Sponsoring Framework: Romania
Detailed statutory guide covering the legal acts, visa pathways, and administrative steps to hire Indian workers.
Immigration Law
Romanian Government Ordinance no. 25/2014 on the employment and secondment of aliens
Hiring non-EU workers for Romania is governed by strict annual immigration quotas set by the Romanian government. Sponsoring Indian workers requires obtaining a Work Authorization (Aviz de angajare) from the General Inspectorate for Immigration (IGI) before filing visa applications at the consulate in New Delhi.
Approved Legal Pathways
Permanent Worker Route (Lucrător permanent)
This is the primary pathway for full-time, long-term employment. The employer must first obtain a Labor Market Certificate showing that the vacancy could not be filled by a Romanian or EU citizen. Once certified, they submit the candidate's file to the IGI to secure the Work Authorization. Indian workers then schedule biometric appointments at the Romanian embassy in Delhi to get their Long-Stay Visa for Employment (Type D/AM).
Seasonal Worker Route (Lucrător sezonier)
For agricultural, farming, and hospitality industries, employers can sponsor workers under seasonal contracts for up to 9 months in a 12-month period. This route has slightly lower administrative thresholds but requires the employer to prove compliant seasonal worker accommodation that meets national standards.
Single Permit Extension
Upon arrival in Romania, the worker must apply for a Single Permit (Permis de ședere) at the local immigration office. This card is usually issued for 1 year and combines their residence and work rights, which can be extended annually without leaving the country as long as the employment contract remains active.
Local Integration & Compliance
CNP Generation & Tax Registration
Once registered in Romania, the worker is issued a CNP (Personal Numeric Code) which is required for their employment contract registration in the national REVISAL database. Taj HR coordinates with the employer's HR team to ensure immediate CNP generation and registration so the candidate can start work legally on Day 1.
The Quota System Cap Bottleneck
Romania operates a strict annual quota (usually 100,000 permits per year) for non-EU workers. If the quota is exhausted early in the year, permit processing stops completely. Taj HR helps employers pre-reserve quota slots early in the calendar cycle to avoid project delays.
