Romania residence: what the permit is worth.
How far this permit travels, the days it costs to keep, and where it leads — years to permanent residency and citizenship. The whole deal, with official sources.
The days that keep it alive
Presence rules are where residence permits are won and lost — and they’re exactly what Countly counts. From the immigration authority:
No statutory minimum days per year to keep an ordinary temporary residence permit, but the underlying purpose (job, business, studies) must remain…
no fixed presence requirement is published for this status — but keep evidence of ties.
staying past 183 days typically makes you a tax resident — a different count, also worth tracking.
