IMPACT – MEDIUM
What is the change? Romania will increase its overall work permit quota for non-EU/EEA nationals to 7,000 this year, up from 5,500 in 2017.
What does the change mean? The quota increased by 1,000 in the category for local hires/permanent workers and by 500 for assignees/seconded workers. Other categories will have the same quotas as last year.
Background: The overall quota increased compared to the 2017 quota.
BAL Analysis: Employers should factor in the adjustments to the quota numbers when planning for hiring and recruitment in the coming year. The increases in the quota for local hires/permanent workers and for assignees/seconded workers are welcome news, especially after 2017 work permit quotas for these categories were exhausted in November.
