message: why it is israel in the list. on the site of romanian foreign affairs said that the romanians need visas for travel in israel. . and in the Romanian Border Police site said that the romanians need visa . I will remove (again) the israel from the list.
There are also another mistake. romanians need visa for china, Exept Hong Kong
You are wrong matter of fact Romanians do have Visa Free Travel to Israel that came into effect from the 1st March 2008 and Israel doesn't need a visa to enter Romania. This agreement was established thus Romania being in the European Union.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by APJ 34 (talk • contribs) 05:11, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Niger needs to be also added. According to IATA Niger can issue Visa on Arrival since France represents Europe for European countries that have no diplomatic representation, so therefore Visa can be issued on arrival.
:1) Please take care to sign your posts and also add new comments at the bottom of the page, not in the middle.
:2) The IATA database states :
   [Visa issuance] PRIOR TO ARRIVAL: by a diplomatic representation of Niger
   in Algeria, Canada, Chad, China (People's Rep.), Cuba,
   Egypt, France, Iran, Italy, Libya, Mali, Mauritania,
   Morocco, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and U.S.A.
   For European countries: French embassy acts for Niger, if
   there is no diplomatic representation of Niger."
:French embassy commonly represent visa interests of former colonies in Africa, issuing visas e.g. for Djibouti, Niger, Côte d'Ivoire etc. Because you can get a visa at the French embassy in Bucharest, the visa-on-arrival facility is not available to Romanians (at least officially).
:You can view an example of such an "in lieu" visa (in this case issuance on behalf of Djibouti) at

message: Why does someone keep adding Falkland Islands to the list, since Romanian currently need a Visa? Or do Romanians have Visa Free/Visa on Arrival?
:Again, please sign your posts and put the reply at the bottom of the page, not in between other posts, otherwise replying becomes a hassle.
:According to http://www.visitorfalklands.com/images/stories/fitb_info_ll.pdf all European Union nationals (thus including Romanians) do not need a visa to enter the Falkland islands. Passportguy (talk) 13:25, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Can Montserrat be added to the Visa Free/Visa on Arrival list because Monserrat is part of Britain? Im guessing its the same addition as the Falkland Islands?Pryde_01)13:48, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No, Montserrat has seperate immigration requirements from Great Britain (as do the Falkland Islands). The Falkland Islands allow all EU citizens to enter visa free, while Montserrat picks and chooses. According to the IATA database at  a visa is required. But if you can find an official site stating otherwise, you can certainly add Montserrat. Passportguy (talk) 14:22, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I have added a few more countries please can this be updated on the map?[User:Pryde_01|Pryde_01]])14:20, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I can see, you have added only Saint Lucia. Are you planning on adding any more ? If so, I'll wait a while, otherwise I can certainly update the map. Passportguy (talk) 14:25, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

text: The way I read that source, is that only nations that joined the EU in 2004 (i.e. not Romania & Bulgaria who joined in 2007) no longer require visas. It may well be that the site is outdated, but I can't find a site actually listing Romania. Passportguy (talk) 15:20, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

text: Unfortunately lowlax.net is not an official site (by any means). I would say that IATA is significantly more reliable that a private American site on tax evasion. Passportguy (talk) 16:27, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

text: As for Belize : the site of the tourism organization lists you mentioned lists only "members of the European Community" (which is outdated in and of itself), while the official site of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Belize (who make the rules) at http://www.mfa.gov.bz/belize/no_visa.php lists individual visa-free countries and does not list Romania as visa-free. As the latter is probably the most reliable, I would say that that source takes precedence of the other. Passportguy (talk) 16:32, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

text: Did they confirm that Romania is part of these countries, i.e. that as "EU countries" they count all EU-27, not just some ? I'm asking, because http://www.commerce.gov.sb/Divisions/Immigration/Immigration_Requirements.htm lists EST/LV/LT and RO/BG as requiring visas. And as they list Kosovo as a seperate country the list must be fairly current. Passportguy (talk) 08:30, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Whoever had taken off Ethiopia leave it on there, because according to IATA Romanian's can travel to Ethiopia with Visa on Arrival on condition holding proof of residence e.g. Passport Check Continental Airlines if you need proof. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pryde 01 (talk • contribs) 
:??? See .
 "Passport required. Visa required.
  However: [only if !]
 1. if passenger is a holder of Identification Card of
   Foreign Nationals of Ethiopian origin; or
 2. if attending meetings, seminars or workshops organized by
   the AU (African Union), or for other official duties of the
   AU and holding invitation letter stating purpose of travel:
 visa can be obtained on arrival."
I.e. generally a visa is not available on arrival to normal Romanian travellers. Such a visa is only available to 1) Romanians of Ethiopian origin 2) Romanians traveling on official African Union business Passportguy (talk) 14:40, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm strange. Do you have a link to the Continental version ?
However the Ethiopian Ministry of Foreign affairs also doesn't list Romania amongst the VOA countries. See http://www.mfa.gov.et/Consular_Affair_Diplomatic/Visa_Issuance.php?Page=Visa_Issuance_5.htm. Passportguy (talk) 19:17, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

text: I'm may just be blind, but I checked the map and cross-checked it with the Africa visa-vree list and all of them are there. Any specific country you think is missing ??

text: The only countries in the ME offering VOA for Romanians are Oman, and Israel+Jordan (no visa required). All of the other Gulf states, even Jordan, require an advance visa. Passportguy (talk) 11:36, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
