Visa and working hours
Digital nomad visa available
Romania launched a digital nomad visa on December 21st, 2021, targeting non-EU citizens and aiming to attract over 2,000 remote workers annually to boost its economy post-COVID-19.
Valid for 12 months, renewable for another year if requirements met, and with a low cost of living, Romania's digital nomad visa allows foreigners employed by or owning companies outside Romania to work remotely in the country without additional permits.
