It is essential to work with a lawyer who has a deep understanding of both Romanian immigration laws and the broader legal framework, including labor law, civil law, and other applicable regulations, because at some point, they might converge.
💡 For example, did you know?
A NON-EU citizen can be employed in Romania with a full-time contract (8 hours/day, 40 hours/week) and requires a work permit to do so.
However, they can also work part-time (e.g., 2 hours/day) without requiring a new work permit for that and mandatory without exceeding the legal maximum of 48 hours/week, including all jobs combined.
This provision is stated from Article 114 of the Romanian Labor Code:
“The maximum legal duration of working time cannot exceed 48 hours per week, including overtime.”
Understanding these provisions is key to ensuring compliance with Romanian laws while achieving your goals, whether it is obtaining a work permit, navigating labor regulations, or obtaining a family reunification visa.
📌 Why does this matter?
Incorrect advice or lack of knowledge about related laws can lead to delays, legal complications, or even rejection of applications. Penalties for the Companies are also a significant risk.
This is why working with an experienced lawyer who knows how all the legal pieces fit together is not just important—it’s essential.
