The procedure is informative in nature and is not available for resolution through this platform. This procedure is addressed to foreign citizens from third countries, EU/EEA citizens, and Romanian citizens who wish to invite foreign citizens to Romania for the purpose of visit, tourism, or business. The invitation can be obtained from the territorial units of the General Inspectorate for Immigration in the county where they reside. To obtain the invitation, applicants must personally submit the forms accompanied by a series of documents at least 45 days before the date the foreign citizen wishes to come to Romania. To improve the efficiency of the public service, the General Inspectorate for Immigration provides applicants with an electronic application portal that can be accessed at https://portaligi.mai.gov.ro
