Conditions for granting the long-term right to stay

In order to obtain the long-term right to stay, you must have had a continuous stay in Romania during the last 5 years. The stay is considered a continuous period if the absence from the Romanian territory is inferior to 6 consecutive months and does not exceed a total of 10 months and if no action of removal from the national territory was ordered against you.

Also, the period during which you have traveled abroad  pursuing activities of international transportation and for which you can present written evidence in this regard is not considered absence from Romania.

The length of stay for study purposes is calculated at half for the long-term residence and the residence under short-stay visa, under the diplomatic or employment visa or the one obtained for the pursuing of seasonal worker activities cannot be taken into account.
