On 25 November 2022, Immigration officers performed a raid aiming to prevent and fight illegal residence and unregistered employment of the foreigners.

A construction company was checked and a number of seven males, India nationals, aged ranging between 31 to 40 were found with illegal residence.

Following the necessary investigations, it was established that foreigners legally entered ROMANIA, with EMPLOYMENT/LABOUR VISA, but later on, when found, they did not meet anymore the legal requirements for residing in ROMANIA.

In line with the legal provisions of the Government s Emergency Ordinance no.194/2004 on legal status of the foreigners in ROMANIA, with all later legal updates, Immigration officers sanctioned the foreigners with fine in amount of 5200 lei. A RETURNING DECISION TO THE HOME COUNTRY WITHIN A VOLUNTARY ASSUMED DEADLINE of 15 days was also issued.

The representative of the company which employed the foreigners, was invited to the Immigration Office for clarifications.
