Necessary special permits or licenses to conduct business activities in Romania cover insurance, banking, transport, e-payment, accounting, recruiting of personnel, pharmaceutical activities, gambling, etc.  Access to a regulated profession depends on whether:

  • settling and practicing a profession locally - a recognition of professional qualifications is needed;
  • providing services - a written preliminary declaration is needed.


Licenses and permits are obtained from different sources (ministries or other official organizations).  The EU regulated professions database offers a wide range of information for each profession that is regulated in the EU.
