Dual Citizenship
Travellers with dual nationality or who are eligible for Romanian
citizenship may be subject to Romanian laws and other obligations.
Holding dual nationality may limit the ability of officials in your
English-speaking home country to provide consular services. You should
check their status at a Romanian embassy or consulate in your home
country prior to travelling to Romania. This is rarely an
issue, but one which has big consequences in case war is declared or a
legal action is taken against you for some reason in Romania.
DIAL 112
in any emergency in Romania
|
|
|
You are subject to all local laws in Romania, and a serious
violation may lead to a jail sentence. Your sentence will be served in
local prisons.
However, Romania is a signatory to the European Convention on the
Transfer of Sentenced Persons which enables a English-speaking offenders
imprisoned in Romania to request to be transferred to their home country
to complete the sentence in a prison there. The transfer requires the
agreement of authorities in both countries.
If you are arrested or detained in Romania, you have the clear right
to contact the responsible government office (embassy, high commission,
etc.) as listed below. If you are arrested, all Romanian officials have a responsibility to
assist you in contacting your local government office. Your
country's consular
officials can provide a list of local lawyers upon request.

America's diplomatic presence in Romania dates back to 1880 when
Eugene Schuyler sent back his first reports to Washington from his
office at Casa Capsă.
Taking office just after Romania's the final defeat of the
Ottomans in the Russo-Turkish war, Schuyler was in a Romania which
had just gained ports on Black Sea coast, and it's increasing
importance in the Balkan region did not go unnoticed in D.C.
Whilst Romania was handled mostly from Athens until 1905, as
were other Balkan nations, the Embassy has remained in it's current
location since it's incept, being without representation only during the
WWII years (when Romania was
overrun by the
Nazis).

Romania Compared with America
|
Romania has the same population as Texas, in an area the size of Oregon.
This puts its population density (people per square mile or km) about the same as
California.
The city area of Bucharest has 2.1 million people, which would rank it 4th
amongst U.S. cities behind New York, Los Angeles and Chicago and just head of
Houston (with 2.05 million). Ranked by greater metropolitan areas, the
Bucharest area is about the same size as the Tampa-St. Petersburg, Pittsburgh,
Baltimore-Towson or St. Louis population centres. |

An American in Paris (of the East)
The bulk of American population in Romania outside of the
military realm are split between academic and government circles
centred around life at the embassies and universities.
Romania gets a lot of it's "western" contracting expertise from
Austria, Italy, Germany and other European countries, hence, with
the exception of a few roads contracts,
process management contracts for power plants in Bucharest and
Cluj and a bit of oil industry business, American presence in
Romania is fairly limited. With total investment in
Romania running at only 10% of that in neighbouring Hungary, indeed
there is room for growth.
Militarily however, 2008 has seen the rotation of full battalions
through Romania after a three year building boom at the air bases,
training grounds and firing ranges throughout the Dobrogea Region
and elsewhere in Romania. A recent excercise in early July
2008 at Mihail Kogălniceanu air base helped coordinate the two
forces. Read more about
the Military in Romania here.
You do not need a visa to enter Romania. As an American passport
holder you can remain in the country for up to 90 days.
Americans living or travelling in Romania are encouraged
to register with the U.S. Embassy through the
State
Department’s travel registration website, and to obtain updated
information on travel and security within Romania, and to make it easier for the
Embassy to contact them in case of emergency.
And please do not ask for ice in your drinks, a cheeseburger, or
Zinfandel. These are all considered rude in Romania (we're
joking, a little).
One of our Australian travel writers (we have two) observed an American
family from New York in the club lounge at Bucharest's
Otopeni airport.
After four weeks in Romania, all the kids could do was complain that
the Romanians don't know how to make a proper cheeseburger.
So please, learn to love the Cappy Visine sour cherry juice,
Santal Blood Orange juice, the barbecued spiced "mici" or Pork Neck
steak, or a glass of Premiat with or without cola!
See more in our Romanian
Food and Dining section.
- The clerk in the next office scrutinises my documents through
gold-framed spectacles. I show her the three red wax seals on my expensive
parchment from the notary.
- "They're official. They cost me EUR200," I explained.
- She glances up from her desk and gives me a grin. A plastic name tag
says Lucia. She has brown hair cut in a neat French bob and wears a grey
polo-neck sweater.
- But suddenly she looks puzzled and says: "What are you, stupid?
EUR200? You don't need candle wax." She reaches into a steel drawer and
pulls out a yellow form, nudging it across the desk. "You just need
this."
- Then she explains: first, I must fill it in. Then I must photocopy it
three times. Then I must take it across town for another stamp. Then I must
bring it back.
- "Wow, so easy?" I ask. She gives me another grin and replies:
"By the way, the notary ripped you off. There's no charge for what you
need."

A Romanian in America
Andrei Codrescu is one of those really smart guys whose intelligence
never exasperates because he's always so funny and spot-on. Born in
Romania, Codrescu is a professor of English at Louisiana State
University.
He edits the literary magazine Exquisite Corpse, offers a seemingly
endless stream of commentary for National Public Radio, writes poetry
and short stories, and has written and starred in his own feature-length
documentary, Road Scholar (1993). The film is a unique and compelling
journey in which Codrescu endeavours to "find" the United States by
driving across it in a red Cadillac convertible.
His mixture of acute cynicism and genuine big-heartedness make the
movie (and all his work) fascinating and entertaining. Even his fanciful
fictions are filled with jabs at and insights into modern life. Codrescu
is not afraid to call things exactly as he sees them, pointing out
hypocrisy and stupidity in all their guises, even as he lightens his
observations with a kind joke and a hopeful laugh.

The House of Representatives in the U.S. Congress is putting
together legislation which will modify conditions placed on Romanian
travellers to America.
But for a country to qualify, it's necessary amongst others,
that the percentage of refused applications for citizenship be less
than ten percent.
These visa conditions now exclude most central and eastern
European nations, which have around 25% of applicants routinely
refused entry to America.
Instead, citizens of the Czech Republic and Estonia would be
exempt from visas. Poland has already expressed it's disappointment
in the face of the impending legislation.
If you know of or are a Romanian citizen interested in applying
for a temporary visa to enter the United States, check out the
well-written
U.S. Embassy Non-Immigrant visa page in Romanian, or in
English.

UK and Romania Sizes

The area of the UK and Romania are both about 240,000km˛,
although the UK is 3 times more crowded than Romania. Romania's
population is just twice that of London, and a third of the UK's 60 million.
Bucharest's metropolitan region is roughly the same size as the
Greater Manchester area, although the club lounge at the airport is nowhere near
as large. Romanians do, at least, offer a tochitura
type of stew which is as every bit as delicious as a Lancashire hotpot!

Honorary Consul, Mr. Christopher John Sherfield
You do not need a visa to enter Romania. As a British passport
holder you can remain in the country for up to 90 days.
However, if you intend to take up temporary residence in Romania
(such as for a work contract, business, teaching, press activities,
church or humanitarian aid projects etc) you should go to your nearest
Romanian Passport Office within 15 days of your arrival in the
country.
If you do decide to spend some longer time in Romania, the Passport Office will register your status and issue a
residency permit, valid for a maximum of one year.
This can be
extended at the end of this period. Spouses and children of those
applying to regularise their status in Romania must also apply at the
Passport Office in person. If you intend to stay for an extended
period you should register with the British Embassy.
Transylvania runs in my blood
An ardent supporter of conservation of the cultural and natural heritage in
Transylvania, HRH Prince of Wales arrived on a hill in
Saschiz, in County
Mureş on 7 May 2008, around mid day, to meet local agricultural producers
and taste some of the local traditional delights.
The heir to the British Royal Crown declared himself delighted with the lamb
pastrami with polenta, of which he tasted next to an iron kettle, and with the
different cheeses, honey and rhubarb jam.
|
 |
|
|
As he was sitting down at a table with the press, Prince Charles
declared that he feels a special bond with Transylvania, saying that
the place is probably in his blood. This was a reference to the fact
that his great-great-great-grandmother, Countess Claudia Rhedley,
lived in the area and is buried at St. George of the Forest (Sângeorgiu
de Pădure).
Beyond the family ties, he said he has a special interest in this
place, in particular the Carpathian zone "which is almost untouched".
Taking time to speak with the people, the Prince was told in details how many
animals the farmers have, and how they take care of them. The heir was
interested if the producers associated themselves to sell better and if they
participate at markets and expositions.

This way he found out that the producers go to Bucharest, at the Romanian
Farmers' Market, to display organic produce. This is the seventh visit Prince
Charles makes (five private, two official) after 1990.
Charles is a supporter of the Romanian ecological agriculture, through his
foundation
Transylvania Authentica.
The organization proposes to promote a so-called "Transylvanian brand" and to
encourage small local producers to continue traditional agriculture.
Transylvania Authentica is a joint initiative of the Foundation for Partnership
from Miercurea Ciuc and of the foundation The Prince's Charities from Great
Britain.

Serbia born citizens resident in Australia).
Australian Consul General Mr. Peter
James Forby is posted in Bucharest at the Australian
Chancery in the embassy row between Victoria Palace and downtown.
The office handles mostly trade and visa interviews.
Australia and Romanian have good relations and a solid treaty
foundation, with bilateral agreements on the mutual promotion and
protection of investment, on trade and economic cooperation, and for
the avoidance of double taxation and the prevention of fiscal
evasion with respect to income taxes.

Romania and Australia have been running neck-and-neck in the
population stakes, with Romania slightly ahead now by a nose (perhaps one and a
half million by the latest estimates).
Australia will surpass Romania in
about 2009 if current trends continue. In world rankings of population ,
Romania and Australia are 50th and 53rd respectively.
Victoria barely fits into Romania, being 95% the land size,
although Victoria has less than a quarter of the population density of Romania.
Bucharest is larger than Brissie by a fair bit and right at 80% of the greater
Melbourne area, and 70% the size of Sydney.

Notes for Australian Travellers
All Australians travelling to Romania, whether for tourism or
business or for short or long stays, are encouraged to register with
the Department
of Foreign Affairs and Trade by clicking here or by calling (02)
6261 3305.
Australians travelling to Romanian to not need a visa
for stays less than 90 days. The previous visa requirement for
Australians and New Zealanders ended in 2006.
Australians can register in person at any Australian Embassy, High
Commission or Consulate or
on-line.
The registration information provided by you will help us to find you
in an emergency - whether it is a natural disaster, civil disturbance
or a family emergency.
If the situation changes and a travel advice for Romania is issued,
travellers can be automatically notified by subscribing to the e-mail
subscription service of the
www.SmartTraveller.gov.au service.
Australians are advised to read the
General Advice to Australian Travellers which provides general
information about safety and security, local laws and customs,
entry and exit requirements, health issues, travel and health
insurance and consular assistance and registration.
For Romanian Tourists to Australia
Romanian tourists travelling to Australia may
apply for their visas online for stays in Australia up to 12
months. Romanians can apply and pay online with a credit card
(about 145RON) for their e676 tourist visa application.
The changes to Australian legislation, made in March 2007, mean
that Romanians visiting the Land Down Under are no longer required
to have a physical visa label placed in their passport, further
improving the convenience of travelling to Australia.
Tourist arrivals from Romania have grown by 69 per cent in the
month following the new tourist visa policy change, and it is
anticipated that arrivals from both countries will continue to grow
in the future.
To travel to Australia, the Romanian citizen must have a genuine
intention to visit Australia only as a tourist, for recreation and
sight-seeing, or to visit friends or family in Australia.
Romanians may also use this visa to study in Australia for up to 3
months, and working is strictly prohibited. It is
permitted however to receive meals, accommodation and reimbursement
of out-of-pocket living expenses in return for voluntary work.
If you're a Romanian citizen, you can
read information first, and then
apply online here.

NZ & Romania
|
New Zealand is geographically larger than Romania, by about
12%.
Yet NZ has just 16% of the population density, with Auckland
comprising about half the population of Bucharest and a third of the total
population of New Zealand.
The two countries share a burning passion
for oviculture.
Both nations, approximately the same size, share an
overwhelming love of sheep ("oaie" in Romanian, "lice" in Kiwi) |

Notes for Kiwi Travellers
If you live overseas, or are travelling overseas for more than
twelve months you are encouraged to record your name and contact
details with your nearest New Zealand diplomatic or consular
representative (Embassy, High Commission, or Consulate) in case you
require assistance in an emergency.
New Zealanders do not need a visa to Romania for
tourism travel less than 90 days.
The previous visa requirement for kiwi travellers was removed in
late 2006 prior to the accession of Romania to the European Union on
the 1st of January 2007.
