How long is a Romanian EU Blue Card valid?

The Romanian EU Blue Card serves as a combined residence and work permit, and its validity is tied to your employment. It is generally granted for the duration of your work contract plus an additional three months.

There is an overall cap, so the card is issued for a maximum term of two years and three months at a time. If your employment continues, the card can be extended in line with your ongoing contract, but it is important to track the expiry and apply to renew before it lapses.
