According to the provisions of Law no. 202/2016 on the integration of the Romanian railway system into the single European railway area and GD no. 361/2018 on the approval of procedures for granting licenses in the field of railway transport, in order to carry out shunting services in the public and/or own interest on the railway lines in Romania, economic operators from Romania must request from the Romanian Railway Licensing Body – OLFR the issuance of a license for carrying out only shunting services.
In order to carry out only shunting services in the public and/or own interest on the railway lines in Romania, the economic operator must prove that, in the articles of incorporation, the activity provided under code 5221 of CAEN rev.2, namely supporting services for land transport activities, is listed.
The license for carrying out only shunting services in the public and/or own interest on the railway lines in Romania may be obtained by economic operators who prove, before starting the activity, that they cumulatively meet the requirements regarding:
• honorability;
• financial capacity;
• professional competence;
• coverage of civil liability risks.
The economic operator requesting the issuance of a license for carrying out only shunting services in the public and/or own interest on the railway lines in Romania must comply with all the requirements provided in art. 5 para. (1) of Annex 1 to GD no. 361/2018.
The economic operator requesting the issuance of a license for carrying out only shunting services in the public and/or own interest on the railway lines in Romania must comply with all the requirements provided in art. 5 para. (1) of Annex 1 to GD no. 361/2018.
To obtain the license for carrying out only shunting services in the public and/or own interest on the railway lines in Romania, an application must be submitted to OLFR, accompanied by documents proving compliance with the mandatory requirements.
All documents included in the license granting file must be presented in Romanian. If some documents are issued in a foreign language, they must be submitted in a copy accompanied by the translation performed by an authorized translator.
The documents included in the license granting file can be sent electronically, in “*.pdf” format. In this case, the license application, as well as all documents prepared by the applicant, must be sent with a qualified electronic signature.
Within 15 working days from the receipt of all documents from the license applicant, OLFR conducts an evaluation visit at the applicant's headquarters.
If the applicant does not submit the complete documents within 45 working days from the date of the license application submission, OLFR notifies the applicant with the reasoned decision of non-granting the license.
