During the temporary or occasional provision of veterinary medical services on the territory of Romania, veterinarians established in Member States are subject to the professional, regulatory, or administrative conduct provisions stipulated by the legislation in force, directly and specifically related to professional qualifications, which regulate the definition of the profession, the use of the official qualification title in the veterinary profession, serious professional violations that directly and specifically affect the protection and safety of consumers, as well as the disciplinary provisions stipulated by law for Romanian citizen veterinarians, members of the Romanian College of Veterinarians.

Veterinary medical activity of a temporary nature means veterinary medical activity carried out over a limited period of time.

Veterinary medical activity of an occasional nature means veterinary/educational activity carried out on a certain occasion (for example: workshops, interventions and/or therapeutic/diagnostic procedures intended to be shared with Romanian veterinarians, including volunteering activities).

The granting of the right to temporarily/occasionally practice the veterinary profession, is performed automatically, starting from the date of receipt of the declaration, in copy or original, as appropriate, at the secretariat of the Executive Office of the College of Veterinarians, as provided in Annex no. 1 to this Decision.

Veterinarians who are citizens of a member state, established in one of the member states, are exempt from the obligation to register with the College of Veterinarians and from paying the membership fee after submitting the Declaration for registration in the Record Register of veterinarians.

Veterinarians from member states, during the temporary/occasional provision of veterinary medical services on the territory of Romania, will be automatically registered for record purposes in the register kept by the College of Veterinarians for this purpose, simultaneously with the registration of the Declaration.

In the event that, during the temporary/occasional provision of services in Romania, providers violate the professional, regulatory, or administrative conduct provisions stipulated by the legislation in force, directly and specifically related to professional qualifications, which regulate the definition of the profession, the use of the official qualification title in the veterinary profession, serious professional violations that directly and specifically affect the protection and safety of consumers, or/and the disciplinary provisions stipulated by law for Romanian citizen veterinarians, members of the Romanian College of Veterinarians, thereby requiring disciplinary measures resulting in temporary or permanent prohibition of practicing the veterinary profession, the College of Veterinarians informs the Member State in which those concerned are established through the alert mechanism, in the situations where the conditions for sending alerts are fulfilled.

The veterinary medical unit in which the veterinarian will provide services of a temporary/occasional nature on the territory of Romania has the obligation to notify the Executive Office of the National Council of the College of Veterinarians and the relevant county branch, within 24 hours from the commencement of his/her activity, regarding the following information: the provider’s name and surname, and the period during which he/she will provide the veterinary medical services (according to the model in Annex no. 3).
