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.
Step 2: Gather the Required Documents
The Romanian visa application requires a number of documents, including:
* A valid passport with at least six months validity beyond your intended date of departure from Romania
* Two recent passport-style photographs
* A completed visa application form
* Proof of travel insurance with a minimum coverage of €30,000
* Proof of sufficient financial means to support your stay in Romania (e.g., bank statements, pay stubs, or a letter from your sponsor)
* A copy of your flight itinerary or other proof of onward travel
* If applicable, a letter of invitation from a Romanian host or a hotel reservation confirmation
Step 3: Submit Your Visa Application
You can submit your visa application in person at the Romanian embassy or consulate in your home country or through a visa application center.
The processing time for a Romanian visa can vary depending on the embassy or consulate you submit your application to. In general, it takes around 10 days to process a visa application.
Step 4: Pay the Visa Fee
The visa fee for a Romanian visa is €60 for a single-entry visa and €120 for a multiple-entry visa.
Step 5: Pick Up Your Visa
Once your visa is approved, you can pick it up from the embassy or consulate where you submitted your application.
Step 6: Enter Romania
When you enter Romania, you will need to present your passport and visa to the border control officer. You may also be asked to provide proof of travel insurance and sufficient financial means.
Important Notes:
* It is important to apply for your visa well in advance of your trip to Romania, as the processing time can vary.
* If you are planning to stay in Romania for more than 90 days, you will need to apply for a long-stay visa. The requirements for a long-stay visa are more complex than those for a short-stay visa, so it is important to contact the Romanian embassy or consulate in your home country for more information.
* If you are planning to work or study in Romania, you will need to apply for a work or study visa. The requirements for these types of visas are different from those for a tourist visa, so it is important to contact the Romanian embassy or consulate in your home country for more information.
