Romania Work Permit Processing Time for Bangladeshis 2026: What to Expect
Timing Your Move to Romania
One of the biggest questions we get is: “How long will it take?” In 2026, the Romanian immigration system (IGI) has streamlined many digital processes, but patience is still key.
The Realistic Timeline
| Stage | Estimated Duration |
| Work Authorization (Aviz) | 30 to 45 Days |
| Visa Interview Appointment | 2 to 4 Weeks |
| Visa Decision (Embassy) | 15 to 30 Days |
| Total Estimated Time | 3 to 4 Months |
Factors That Delay Your Application
-
Incomplete Documentation: Missing attestation on your PCC is the #1 cause of delays.
-
Quota Limits: Romania sets annual quotas for non-EU workers. If the quota is nearly full, processing can slow down toward the end of the year.
-
Employer Response: If your employer doesn’t respond to IGI queries quickly, your Aviz will be delayed.
Final Advice
Always apply at least 4 months before your intended start date. Romania is efficient, but the “Delhi-Dhaka” document transit for the embassy can add a week or two to your wait.
