Moving to Romania - applying for long-stay visa

Yes, he must apply for a family reunification visa to live with you in Romania.  You may need to establish residence there yourself first though.

Once he has the visa and enters Romania on it, he'll then start the process to obtain the Permis de Sedere Temporara which will allow him to reside in Romania with you.  That also will serve as his work authorization.  A work visa is not applicable.

You haven't mentioned if you have had your marriage transcribed in Romania.  That would be the first step.

Thank you for your reply, it is all very helpful information.  We just recently got married, so still waiting for our marriage certificate to come in the mail, once it does I will be getting it transcribed in Romanian.

Do you happen to know more about how to establish residency in Romania? Would I need to go to Ro first, and rent an apartment and show that as my proof of address before he submits his application?  Or is it enough for my parents to claim I am living at their address and I have a temporary buletin issued? When we go, we are planning on staying at their house for some time, so that would be the address we will be living at. Sorry for all the questions, I am having a hard time finding all the necessary info for this specific situation. I greatly appreciate the guidance and help.

Either situation you mentioned should be fine. You can rent a place, or your parents can "host" you both, provided they have enough space that's required by law for the number of people living there.  If you decide to rent an apartment, just make sure the rental contract is registered with ANAF.  If you go with your parents, then they'll have to make a declaration at the notary.
