Post study work visa options after graduating from Romania?

After graduating from Romania, non-EU students can apply for a post-study work visa, officially known as the extension of stay for employment. This allows graduates to seek employment for up to nine months after completing their studies. Applicants must apply at the Romanian Immigration Office before their student visa expires.

Once employed, graduates can transition to a work visa, provided they secure a job offer meeting legal requirements. EU graduates enjoy free movement within the EU and do not need a separate visa. Always verify current regulations with the Romanian Immigration Office or your university’s international office.
