MANILA, Philippines - The Romanian government has decided that beginning Feb. 1, 2014 all foreign nationals wishing to visit Romania for business or tourist purposes will have the option to travel with a Schengen visa.
The Romanian embassy says Filipino holders of Schengen visas valid for at least two or multiple entries, long-stay visas or residence permits issued by Schengen member-states who wish to travel, no longer need a Romanian visa.
The duration of stay in the territory of Romania cannot exceed the right of stay granted through the Schengen visas, the long-stay visas or the residence permits.
