The General Inspectorate for Immigration reminds citizens that work permits are issued in line with the legislation in force, for 7 categories of workers: permanent; intern; cross-border; highly qualified; seconded; au pair and transferred within the same company.

These documents attest to the legal right of foreigners to carry out gainful activities on the territory of Romania. For further details on each category of workers, conditions and documents required to obtain the employment permit, please access the link igi.mai.gov.ro.
