Romania and Honduras have a long history of partnership, with both countries benefiting from this relationship. For example, Romania is a major source for dairy products for Honduras, and the country provides medical assistance and other assistance to its citizens.
Today, we are issuing a travel advisory for Romania as part of the European Union’s Enhanced Travel Notices (ETIAS) program. ETIAS is an important tool that allows us to keep you informed about information that could impair your safety while traveling in the European Union.
This travel advisory addresses specifically the risks posed by the outbreak of Zika virus in Romania. The Advisory includes information on how to reduce your risk of becoming infected with Zika, steps you can take if you become ill while traveling in Romania, and what to do if you are denied entry into Romania because of the infection.
We hope this travel advisory will help protect you as you plan your next trip to Romania.
Applying For Romania ETIAS From Honduras
If you are a citizen of Honduras and want to travel to Romania, you will first need to obtain an ETIAS visa. There are several ways to apply for an ETIAS visa, including through a Romanian embassy or consulate in Honduras or by applying online. You will need to provide your passport information, the name of the city in Romania where you plan to visit and your dates of travel. You will also need to provide evidence that you have enough money to cover your expenses while in Romania and proof that you are not a criminal. Finally, you will need to take an online medical exam. If you are approved for an ETIAS visa, it will be valid for one year and you will be able to stay in Romania for up to 90 days per trip.

Firstly, an ETIAS visa is valid for 90 days and can be used to travel to any Schengen country. secondly, because Romania is a member of the European Union, you will be able to access many of the same benefits as EU citizens, including free movement and access to certain employment and education opportunities. Finally, Romania has a strong economy and is considered a safe country to visit.
Things To Consider Before Coming To Romania
Things to Consider Before Coming to Romania
- Learn the language. Romanian is the official language of Romania, and although it shares many similar words with the Spanish language, a basic knowledge of Romanian will be helpful in getting around. Other languages spoken in Romania include Hungarian and Italian. English is also widely spoken, though not always fluently.
- Respect local customs. Some cultural traditions in Romania are difficult to understand if you are not familiar with them. For example, it is customary to say “thank you” after receiving a gift, but saying “merci” in French would be more appropriate in most cases. Similarly, do not refusal an invitation to lunch or dinner – taking no food may come across as rude in some situations.
- Dress appropriately for the weather. Romania can be cold in winter and hot in summertime, so be sure to pack appropriate clothing for the climate you’ll be experiencing. In general, mixing different types of clothing – for example, wearing a jumper during the day and dressing up for night time – is a good idea when travelling in Romania.
- Have plenty of money ready. Romania is a costly country to live in, and especially if you’re not used to using euros or Romanian currency (lei). A 1 Lei equals 0.64 US Dollars, so it’s important to have enough cash on hand if you plan on shopping extensively or eating out frequently.
Romania ETIAS For Citizens Of Honduras – FAQ
Romania has announced that it is starting to implement the EU Temporary Admission Scheme for Settlement and Internally Displaced Persons (ETIAS) for citizens of Honduras.
The ETIAS Visa is a short-term visa with a validity of 3 months which can be issued to nationals of countries that are part of the EU visa-free zone or to those who have a valid biometric passport.
The application process is relatively straightforward, and applicants need to provide only their declared name, date of birth, sex, nationality, address in Romania and copies of valid identification documents. The fee for ETIAS is €50 (£42).
Once the ETIAS is issued, the applicant must visit a Romanian diplomatic mission or one of the 8 designated visa agencies in order to obtain an immigration card. This card must be shown when traveling to Romania and will allow the holder to stay in the country for 90 days without having to apply for a residence permit.
Romania has indicated that it will accept applications from citizens of Honduras until 30 September 2019. After this date, applications from citizens of Honduras will no longer be accepted.
