13 July 2024 · Europe Permit

Considering a career in Romania after graduation? Let’s navigate the work visa options:

Understanding Your Limits:

  • Student Visa: Allows part-time work (up to 4 hours/day) but not full-time employment after graduation.

Transitioning to Work Visas:

  • Employment Visa (D/AM): The most common option. Requires a job offer with a salary exceeding the minimum (€2743 EUR gross monthly in 2023). Employer typically sponsors your work permit.

Recent Update (July 2024): Stricter regulations on employment contracts and work permit notifications. Work closely with your employer to ensure compliance.

  • EU Blue Card (For Highly Skilled): Offers faster application and work flexibility. Requires a relevant degree in a Romanian skill-shortage field and a high-paying job offer.

Boost Your Chances:

  • Learn Romanian: Demonstrates commitment and opens doors to more opportunities.
  • Network: Build connections in your field. Attend industry events and leverage your academic network for job openings.

Remember:

  • Research specific requirements for your chosen field.
  • Consult a visa specialist for personalized guidance.
  • Stay updated on regulations, especially regarding employment contracts.
