Overview  

The government of Romania introduced changes to its document requirement timeline for employers of foreign national workers on 20 September 2023. These changes include removing the following document requirements as part of the online application process for hiring foreign nationals: 

  • Certificate regarding the available workforce for the job vacancy; 
  • Proof of the publication by means of mass information in Romania demonstrating occupation of the vacant job; 
  • The copy of the minutes drawn up by the employer that provides proof that the selection of an applicant was carried out to fill the vacant job;
