Documents required by third-country nationals when travelling from abroad into the European Union

Romanian visa. Information for foreign nationals

The travel rules applicable to third-country nationals who are family members of EU/EEA/Swiss citizens are set out in the external portal, eVisa.

In order to facilitate the visa process, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has set up the eVisa portal, available 24/7. The portal aims to reduce waiting times at visa counters and streamline the handling of visa applications.

The eVisa portal provides visa applicants the opportunity to prove that they comply with the legal requirements by uploading the necessary information and supporting documents online before presenting them at the counter. The documents are checked by the consular officer, who provides feedback online and informs the applicant of the possibility of scheduling an appointment online via the portal, on a specific date and time, at the relevant diplomatic mission or consular post in order to have the original documents verified and submit the file.

The eVisa portal enables users to check the status of their application online at any time.

More details on the visa process can be found here.

For additional information, you can contact the competent authority, which is the National Visa Centre of the Consular Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
