Visa & Entry

US passport holders enter Romania visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period across the entire Schengen area. Romania joined the Schengen area in 2024 for air and sea borders (land border Schengen entry took effect in 2025). Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure from the Schengen area. At Henri Coanda International Airport (OTP) in Bucharest, immigration stamps your passport.

The 90-day Schengen clock runs across all Schengen countries. Days spent in other Schengen states count toward the same 90-day limit. Romania is an EU member. Transylvania, the Carpathian Mountains, and the painted monasteries of Bucovina are the main draws outside Bucharest.

Bucharest's Old Town (Lipscani district) has been restored into a walkable entertainment and dining quarter.
