Immigration

Talent crosses borders. Legal formalities should not slow it down.

Talent moves internationally — and so does legal complexity. Romania's immigration framework distinguishes sharply between EU and non-EU nationals, imposes strict obligations on posted workers, and has added scrutiny for regulated professions. We handle the full immigration process for companies and individuals: work permit applications, EU Blue Cards, long-stay visas, posted workers compliance, and corporate relocation programs. When timelines are tight and delays affect business operations, we move quickly and keep HR teams and executives informed at every step.

Our Approach

Immigration law is process-driven, but the stakes are high when it goes wrong. We combine deep knowledge of Romanian immigration procedures with a practical, client-oriented approach — managing timelines, anticipating issues, and coordinating with authorities so that talent arrives on time and compliance is maintained without disruption.

What We Do

Full-range immigration and mobility services for employers and individuals.

Work Permits & Employment Visas

Obtaining work permits and employment visas for non-EU nationals — including single permit applications, ICT (intra-company transfer) permits, and highly skilled worker authorizations.

EU Blue Card

Advising on and processing EU Blue Card applications for highly qualified third-country nationals — one of the most effective routes for attracting skilled international talent to Romania.

Residence Rights

Managing residence permit applications, long-stay visa procedures, and permanent residence applications — ensuring continuous legal status for individuals throughout their time in Romania.

Posted Workers Compliance

Advising employers on compliance with the EU Posted Workers Directive — including registration obligations, A1 certificates, minimum wage compliance, and host-country documentation requirements.

Corporate Relocation Programs

Designing and managing immigration programs for companies relocating teams to Romania or moving Romanian employees abroad — including group processing, policy development, and HR integration.

Immigration Due Diligence

Reviewing immigration compliance in the context of M&A transactions — assessing the immigration status of key personnel, identifying risks, and structuring remediation plans.

Immigration Compliance Audits

Conducting internal audits of immigration compliance programs — reviewing work authorization documentation, identifying gaps, and building processes that reduce enforcement risk.

Family Reunification & Private Immigration

Advising executives and high-net-worth individuals on family reunification, long-term residence, and citizenship matters — including naturalisation under Romanian law.
