Nationals of the Philippines must apply for a Romanian visa if they plan to stay in the country for more than 90 days within a 180-day period. If your stay is shorter than 90 days, you may be able to enter Romania without a visa.

* A copy of your flight itinerary or other proof of onward travel
* If you are applying for a work visa, you must also provide a letter of invitation from your employer
* If you are applying for a student visa, you must also provide a letter of acceptance from your school
Step 3: Submit Your Application
You can submit your Romania visa application in person at the Romanian embassy or consulate in your home country. Alternatively, you can submit your application online through the Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs website.
Step 4: Pay the Visa Fee
The visa fee for Filipinos is €60. You can pay the visa fee in cash or by credit card at the embassy or consulate.
Step 5: Wait for Your Visa to be Processed
The Romanian visa processing time can vary depending on the embassy or consulate where you apply. In general, you should expect to wait several weeks for your visa to be processed.
Step 6: Pick Up Your Visa
Once your visa has been approved, you will be notified by the embassy or consulate. You can then pick up your visa in person or have it mailed to you.
