Romania Work Visa from Ghana 2026: Direct Visa D + 2-Year Resident Card

Romania Work Visa 2026 from Ghana — Visa D with a two-year resident card on arrival, accommodation included, strong approval profile for African applicants. Register from GHS 1,000.

Romania Work Visa from Ghana 2026: Direct Visa D + 2-Year Resident Card

Overview

Romania entered the Schengen air and sea perimeter in 2024, and its direct work-visa programme has since become one of the most attractive EU routes for Ghanaians. The Visa D is paired with a two-year resident card issued on arrival, with construction, factory and agricultural vacancies dominating the menu.

Important: Secure Travel and Tours Ghana does not guarantee visa approval. Final decisions rest entirely with the Romania embassy and immigration authorities. What we guarantee is complete, accurate documentation and full programme management at every stage.

Why the Romania Direct Work Visa Works for Ghanaians in 2026

The Romania programme is a direct, employer-sponsored work visa — not a job-seeker visa, not a study route, not a tourist conversion. You leave Ghana with a confirmed contract, written employment terms and accommodation arranged on arrival. That is the single biggest reason approval profiles stay strong across African applicant pools: the embassy is reviewing a real labour-market need, not a speculative travel plan.

Required Documents

The base documentation set for the Romania programme is intentionally short:

  1. Valid Ghana passport (6+ months validity, ideally 18 months)
  2. Education diploma / certificate (SSCE/WASSCE or higher, where required)
  3. Completed Romania work permit application form
  4. Passport-size photographs (white background, biometric specs)
  5. Ghana Police criminal record certificate (where required)

Specific add-ons depend on the vacancy — your placement manager confirms the exact list in writing after registration.

How the Application Runs

  1. Register and pay the GHS 1,000 registration fee on the Work Visa Registration page. This opens your candidate file and locks your slot in the next monthly intake.
  2. Document collection and verification — submission to the Romania employer and authority. Stage 1 of the 20 / 40 / 40 milestone plan.
  3. Work permit issued — Stage 2 payment is only released after the permit is in hand.
  4. Visa appointment and decision — Stage 3 payment is only released after the visa is granted.
  5. Pre-departure briefing, flight, and arrival reception in Romania.

Air tickets and embassy fees are not included in the programme price and are payable separately.
