Shooting Clubs by ixDavidxi

Hello. I have been searching for a Hunting Club to contact and join, but can not seem to find one. It is my understanding that expats can legally own a rifle if they are a member of a hunting club, or a short-barrel weapon if a member of a sports ...

Places to look at to stay in Bucharest by icdchris61

Hello all, I am Chris and I will be in Bucharest the first part of April for 3 months and maybe very much longer. If someone can recommend places to look at to stay just let me know. Thanks Chris

BellaIQ

Chris, you can use pretty much any region of Bucharest if you don't have a car but stick around the areas where there is a metro/ bus/ tram station! Downtown it's more expensive but much safer than Ferentari, for instance. It all depends on ... Read More

Search for ownership of a car by VladLuna

Hello, im wondering how it works with finding owner of a certain car from Romania, how can one go ahead with finding who is owner to a specific car with knowing the plate of the car?

BellaIQ

That's PII, and only if you have a civil or criminal matter (esp if related to a car accident), the Police may identify it but you won't have that information given to you. Beware of the prescription timeline if that's the case. There ... Read More

Yes, there is a process for you to register in the Romanian system. Have you tried the Romanian Consulate in the USA? You'd have to do the paperwork which will be sent to Romania; it will take a while. This is not a process that would require ... Read More

If you're a member of EU, it's easier. Otherwise, I would not recommend you to stay illegally. Ask at least for an official extension with the Romanian authorities. Read More

Cristian, Good feedback! Certain procedures, even in the USA, require two official valid documents issued by that government. Romania implements such requirements in most procedures. Indeed, having the information (not even in a copy) is enough to ... Read More

GuestPoster302, who sent you to have a CNP issued??? That's non-sense. A CNP is the equivalent of a SSN, and it's assigned to you at birth if you're born in Romania (or even overseas but register through the official Romanian ... Read More
