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 D/AM long-stay visa route — and we manage the Pakistan-side compliance end-to-end.

Romania is a corridor Crown works week in, week out — so the IGI permit paperwork, 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.

The Process

How the Romania work-visa route works.

Romania's route is employer-led: a work permit first, then a long-stay employment visa. In practice it runs like this:

  1. Work permit (aviz de angajare) The Romanian employer applies to the General Inspectorate for Immigration (IGI) for a work permit for the named worker(s).
  2. D/AM long-stay visa Once the permit is approved, the worker applies for the D/AM (employment) long-stay visa at the Romanian mission handling Pakistan.
  3. BEOE Protectorate (Pakistan) In parallel, we complete the worker's BEOE Protectorate clearance, attestation and medicals in Pakistan.
  4. Travel & entry The worker travels on the D/AM visa and enters Romania to begin employment.
  5. Residence permit After arrival, the worker obtains a Romanian residence permit (permis de ședere) to stay and work legally.

Timelines and steps here are indicative and move with current Romanian immigration rules and individual cases. Crown confirms the live requirements for your specific roles before anything is committed.

Pakistan Side

The compliance we handle in Pakistan.

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 2869/RWP), we handle Protectorate clearance, attestation, GAMCA/required medicals, police clearance and pre-departure formalities, so your workers arrive legally documented and ready.

FAQ

Romania recruitment questions.

What is the Romania 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 applies for the Romanian work permit?

The Romanian employer files the work-permit application for the named worker with the immigration authority (IGI). Crown prepares and coordinates every Pakistan-side document that application depends on.

How long does the Romania process 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 handle the full process?

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 are most in demand in Romania?

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