Renting Property in Romania
Long-term leasing and tourist accommodation are different regimes. Order 948/2026 changed classification paperwork and consent requirements; an online listing is not proof of legal compliance.
Scope
Use the Romania Passport for current structured rules
Long-term leasing and tourist accommodation are different regimes. Order 948/2026 changed classification paperwork and consent requirements; an online listing is not proof of legal compliance.
OwnASea keeps ownership, immigration, tax, tourism, mortgage, cadastral and succession evidence separate. Under-review values remain visibly pending and are never turned into a verified yes/no claim.

Tourism classification
An online listing is not a tourism permit
Order 948/2026 amended classification paperwork, owner/co-owner consents and the individual operator limit where applicable. Long-term leasing, tourist classification, tax registration and local guest charges must be handled separately.
Key points
What to remember
- EU/EEA and third-country land rules are not interchangeable.
- A Land Book extract is essential, but it is not the whole technical due-diligence file.
- Current VAT values and historical transition dates stay date-scoped in Passport.
- Property ownership is not a Romanian residence permit or Golden Visa.
- Tourist classification and building/owner consent are separate from an online listing.
- PAD insurance is not a structural-safety certificate, and building age is not a seismic classification.
