Bangladeshi students pursuing higher education in Romania now have expanded options for obtaining their student visas. The East Europe and CIS Division of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on September 10, 2024, that Romanian Embassies in Hanoi, Vietnam, and Bangkok, Thailand, will now accept student visa applications from Bangladeshi students.
This development marks a significant change from the previous arrangement, where Bangladeshi students were limited to applying for Romanian student visas only at the Romanian Embassy in New Delhi, India. The new policy aims to streamline the visa application process and provide greater convenience for Bangladeshi students who have been accepted into Romanian universities.
The decision to broaden the application locations comes as part of ongoing efforts to facilitate international education opportunities for Bangladeshi students. By allowing applications at embassies in Hanoi and Bangkok, the process becomes more accessible to students, potentially reducing travel costs and waiting times associated with visa applications.
This move is expected to benefit a growing number of Bangladeshi students choosing Romania as their destination for higher education. Romania has been gaining popularity among international students due to its quality education system, relatively affordable tuition fees, and rich cultural heritage.
Students planning to apply for Romanian student visas are advised to check the specific requirements and procedures at the respective embassies in Hanoi and Bangkok. Typically, visa applications require documents such as acceptance letters from Romanian universities, proof of financial means, and valid passports.
As international education continues to play a crucial role in global knowledge exchange and cultural understanding, this new visa application option is likely to strengthen educational ties between Bangladesh and Romania.
