About TAY EVEREST RECRUITMENT

What does TAY EVEREST RECRUITMENT do?

We recruit staff for employers in Romania and across the European Union, from the local market and from more than 30 countries outside the EU. We also take on the part that decides whether a hire is legal: the authorisation file, the single application, the visa, the residence permit, the bilingual contract and the obligations that follow arrival.

Are you an authorised placement agency?

Yes. ANOFM granted us authorisation no. 31 of 07.10.2026 to operate as a foreign worker placement agency, by order of the ANOFM president no. 127 of the same date. It is valid until 07.10.2028 and can be checked with ANOFM. Full details are on the About page.

Which countries do you recruit from?

We work through our own offices and vetted partners in Asia, Africa, Central Asia and Eastern Europe. Principal markets include Nepal, India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Turkiye, Egypt and Moldova. Other countries are possible on request.

Which sectors do you cover?

Construction and infrastructure, manufacturing, logistics and warehousing, hospitality and HoReCa, agriculture and food processing, care, retail, automotive and cleaning services. The full list of positions is on the Sectors page.

For employers

How much does it cost?

We work on a fixed fee per placement, quoted before we start, with authorisation and visa included. The price depends on the source country, the role and the headcount, so we give it in the offer. Send us a staffing request and you will have an offer within 48 hours.

How long until the worker arrives?

It depends on the source country, the consulate and the occupation, which is why we do not give a general figure. For every project you receive a legal timeline from the start, with a realistic date for each stage: registration, single application, visa and arrival.

Does the work permit (aviz de munca) still exist?

No. Since 27 April 2026 the employment permit and the secondment permit have been abolished. They were replaced by the single application, filed electronically through WorkinRomania.gov.ro. More in the article What changed for employers.

Do I need ANOFM authorisation as an employer?

If you work through an authorised placement agency such as TAY EVEREST RECRUITMENT, registering your company on the platform is enough. Hiring directly, without an agency, requires ANOFM authorisation, with conditions: no debts to the state budget, a clean tax record, at least 24 months of activity, an average of at least 50 employees in the previous year and a guarantee of 1,000 euro for each worker requested.

How many foreign workers can I hire?

A company cannot employ more foreign nationals than its average headcount in the previous year. An individual employer can hire at most three. We check this cap before recruitment starts.

Which roles can I fill with non-EU workers?

Permanent, seasonal and cross-border workers can only be brought in for occupations on the shortage occupation list approved by the Ministry of Labour. Highly qualified workers follow the D/AM1 visa route and are not limited by that list. Tell us the role and we will confirm whether it qualifies.

What are my obligations once the worker arrives?
  • A bilingual individual employment contract.
  • Registration in REGES-ONLINE.
  • Health and safety training in a language the worker understands.
  • A Romanian language and integration course, at least six months and at least six hours a week.

Fines reach 40,000 lei and can be applied separately for each worker. We can take all of this on.

Can you hire foreign nationals already in Romania?

Yes. We handle change of employer and the extension or change of purpose of residence. Changing employer is restricted in the first six months, so we review each case before filing.

What happens if a worker leaves?

We offer a replacement guarantee. If a placed worker leaves within the guarantee period set in the contract, we replace them at no extra cost.

How do I follow each worker's progress?

Every client gets access to the client portal. There you see each worker's stage, the candidates waiting for your approval, documents and permit expiry dates.

For workers and candidates

Do I have to pay for a job or for my visa?

No. TAY EVEREST RECRUITMENT never asks for money for a job, for placement, for the visa file or out of wages. Recruitment is paid for by the employer. If anyone asks you for money in our name for a job, do not pay and write to office@tayeverest.com.

How can I apply for a job in Romania?

We recruit against firm offers from employers, through our offices and partners in the source countries. You can send your CV free of charge to office@tayeverest.com or on WhatsApp. We keep it in our candidate pool and contact you when a suitable position opens.

What is the CV builder?

It is an optional online tool on the CV Builder page that lets you make a professional PDF CV yourself. It costs 7 euro, paid once. It does not guarantee a job, it is not a condition for applying and it is not linked to the recruitment process. A CV sent free of charge, in any format, is reviewed in exactly the same way.

Which documents does a worker need for Romania?

Usually: a valid passport, a CV, diplomas or trade certificates, a criminal record certificate and a medical certificate. The exact list depends on the country and the role, and we send it at selection. Some documents must be translated and apostilled.
