Reviewed by Bassam Laiq Sheikh — Director Operations.

Romania has become one of the most active European corridors for Pakistani labour, as its construction, manufacturing and industrial employers face persistent workforce shortages. Crown Enterprises Overseas Employment actively processes Pakistani workers into Romania — including the work permit and cererea unică and D/AM1/D/AM2 long-stay visa route under OUG 32/2026 — and we manage the Pakistan-side compliance end-to-end.

Romania is a corridor Crown works week in, week out — so the WorkinRomania.gov.ro application, the embassy steps and the points where files usually stall are familiar ground. From our Islamabad office, that day-to-day familiarity is what turns a slow EU work-visa process into a deployment that actually lands.

Răspunsuri pentru angajatorii din România

Căutăm o agenție pentru muncitori străini — puteți aduce oameni din Pakistan?

Da. Crown Enterprises este o agenție pakistaneză de recrutare licențiată de guvern (Licență OEP 2868/RWP). Asigurăm import de forță de muncă pentru construcții, producție și textile — de la selecția candidaților până la avizul de muncă și viza D/AM.

Cât timp durează aducerea muncitorilor din Pakistan?

De regulă între 6 și 12 săptămâni de la confirmarea cererii până la sosirea muncitorului, în funcție de soluționarea cererii unice pe WorkinRomania.gov.ro (termen legal: 30 de zile). Pregătim actele în paralel, ca procesul să fie mai scurt.

Are angajatorul costuri când angajează lucrători străini?

Selecția, testarea și sprijinul administrativ sunt gratuite pentru angajator. Ca sponsor, angajatorul plătește doar taxele legale pentru dreptul de muncă și viză.

Trimiteți și meseriași calificați, nu doar personal necalificat?

Da. Avem candidați sudori, dulgheri, operatori de mașini și tehnicieni textili, dar și muncitori necalificați pentru construcții și producție, toți testați practic.

În ce județe ale României lucrați?

Lucrăm cu angajatori din toată țara, inclusiv din București, Cluj-Napoca, Timișoara, Brașov și Constanța.

Cum alegeți o agenție autorizată și de încredere pentru muncitori străini?

Crown Enterprises Overseas Employment este licențiată de BEOE (Licență OEP 2868/RWP), certificată ISO 9001:2015 și activă de 16+ ani, cu experiență verificabilă — am colaborat cu companii internaționale din petrol și gaze, energie și construcții.

Puteți trimite muncitori pentru meserii anume — sudori, electricieni, șoferi?

Da. Avem candidați testați dinainte pentru sudură, lucrări electrice, operare în textile, conducere de vehicule grele și construcții generale.

Oferiți punere la dispoziție de personal sau muncitori cu contract pe durată determinată?

Da. Putem asigura personal pe durata dreptului de muncă și a vizei D/AM, după nevoile angajatorului — un model de externalizare a forței de muncă fără angajament pe termen lung.

Two Pakistani exit requirements worth knowing.

PakSoftSkills: what it is and whether it is required

Yes. Since 19 November 2025, every Pakistani worker going abroad on a work visa must complete the free PakSoftSkills training and register at softskills.oec.gov.pk before the Protector of Emigrants will stamp the passport; without it the worker cannot leave legally. We complete this registration for every candidate as part of our standard pre-departure work, so it never holds you up.

How do you test a candidate's trade before departure?

Before any skilled or semi-skilled candidate reaches your shortlist, they are tested at NAVTTC-approved centres. Welders, electricians, machine operators and other technicians are checked against recognised standards rather than their own description of their experience.

Licensed deployment — OEP 2868/RWP.

Crown Enterprises Overseas Employment is a BEOE-licensed Overseas Employment Promoter (OEP 2868/RWP), ISO 9001:2015 certified, and a member of POEPA. Licence and ISO copies are attached to the employer feasibility pack on request.

Demand

Where Pakistani workers are needed in Romania.

These are the sectors where Romanian employers hire Pakistani workers most:

The Process

Romania's work-visa route, updated for OUG 32/2026.

Romania changed this system on 27 April 2026 with Emergency Ordinance OUG 32/2026, and it has run fully online since 8 August 2026. The old "aviz de angajare" from IGI no longer exists; everything now goes through one electronic platform. In practice the steps are:

  1. Employer registration on WorkinRomania.gov.ro The Romanian employer, or for shortage-list jobs an authorised placement agency acting for it, registers on the new online platform.
  2. Single application (cererea unică) This fully replaces the old work-permit application. It is filed online with the worker's documents and decided within 30 days.
  3. D/AM1 or D/AM2 long-stay visa Highly qualified jobs use D/AM1, which has no quota. General trades — construction, textiles, manufacturing and most jobs we fill — use D/AM2, which is linked to Romania's official List of Shortage Occupations. The visa fee is 300 EUR.
  4. BEOE Protectorate (Pakistan) At the same time, we complete the worker's BEOE Protectorate clearance, attestation and medicals in Pakistan.
  5. Bilingual contract & REGES registration Under OUG 32/2026 the contract must be in Romanian and in the worker's language, and registered in Romania's REGES system.
  6. Travel & residence permit The worker enters Romania on the D/AM visa and then obtains a residence permit (permis de ședere) to live and work there legally.

This reflects the framework in force as of August 2026. Romanian immigration rules continue to evolve under the new platform — Crown confirms the live requirements for your specific roles before anything is committed.

Pakistan Side

Pakistan-side compliance, handled by us.

Every Pakistani worker going to Romania must be processed through the Bureau of Emigration & Overseas Employment (BEOE) and cleared by the Protectorate of Emigrants — it is a legal requirement, and doing it correctly is what separates a compliant deployment from a problem. As a licensed Overseas Employment Promoter (OEP 2868/RWP), we handle Protectorate clearance, attestation, GAMCA/required medicals, police clearance and pre-departure formalities, so your workers arrive legally documented and ready.

FAQ

Questions about recruiting for Romania.

What is Romania's D/AM visa?

The D/AM is Romania's long-stay employment visa. It is issued once the employer's work permit (aviz de angajare) is approved, and it lets the worker enter Romania, start the job and then apply for a residence permit.

Who files the Romanian work permit?

Since OUG 32/2026, the Romanian employer (or an authorised placement agency for shortage-list roles) files the cererea unică on WorkinRomania.gov.ro for the named worker — the old IGI work-permit application no longer exists. We prepare and coordinate every Pakistan-side document that application depends on.

How long does hiring for Romania take?

It depends on the case and current processing loads — the work permit and then the D/AM visa each take time, while BEOE Protectorate clearance runs alongside. Crown gives a realistic timeline for your specific batch up front, not an optimistic guess.

Do you manage everything end to end?

On the Pakistan side Crown runs the whole chain — sourcing, trade testing, medicals, attestation and BEOE Protectorate clearance — and works hand in hand with the Romanian employer on the permit and visa stages.

Which workers do Romanian employers need most?

Construction trades, welders, textile and manufacturing operatives and hospitality staff are the roles Romanian employers ask for most.

Cum se aduc muncitori străini din Pakistan?

Crown realizează selecția și testarea candidaților în Pakistan, iar angajatorul român (sau o agenție de plasare autorizată, pentru ocupațiile deficitare) depune cererea unică pe platforma WorkinRomania.gov.ro — vechiul aviz de muncă emis de IGI nu mai există din aprilie 2026. Gestionăm întregul proces din partea Pakistanului, fără costuri pentru angajator.

Există o agenție care trimite muncitori calificați și necalificați din Pakistan?

Da. Crown este o agenție pakistaneză de recrutare licențiată (OEP 2868/RWP), activă din 2010, care oferă personal străin calificat și necalificat pentru construcții, producție și textile.

Why Pakistan

Pakistan compared with other source countries — a straight answer.

Employers evaluating South Asian labour sourcing usually weigh Pakistan against India and Nepal. Here's how they actually compare for the trades Crown places most:

Aspect Pakistan India Nepal
Strongest tradesConstruction, welding, textiles and general manufacturingTechnical trades, automotive and CNCRepetitive line work and logistics
Gulf experienceCommon — most tested candidates have worked on Saudi, UAE or Qatar sitesVariable by tradeVariable
English proficiencyCommon among trade-tested candidatesWidespreadGetting better, but less consistent
Cost competitivenessStrong — wage expectations keep project budgets workableModerate, rising with skill levelStrong for high-volume and general roles
Our licensingDirect — BEOE-licensed OEP (2868/RWP), no intermediary layer——

These are general patterns by trade; individual quality varies by role and group. Crown is licensed and active in the Pakistan corridor only — for workers from India or Nepal, use a partner based in that country.
