General conditions governing the entrance of foreign nationals to Romania can be found visiting the VISA section from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
A valid passport is required for all overseas/ non-EU visitors. Your passport must be valid for the entire duration of your visit. However, please check the expiration date on your passport carefully before traveling to Europe. Although Romania is part of the Schengen agreement, some airlines (i.e. Lufthansa) may refuse boarding at your point of origin or while transferring planes if your passport is not valid for at least three months beyond your intended date of departure. For this reason, it is recommended that your passport has at least six months' validity remaining.
Citizens of the European Union, of the European Economic Area, of the Swiss Confederation, of these countries, holders of Schengen visas with two or multiple entries, national visas or residence permits issued by Schengen Member States, can enter Romania with a valid passport or with their National Identity Card without a visa.
