Regimul de vize și condițiile de călătorie pentru cetățenii români în UK

Începând cu data de 1 ianuarie 2021, Regatul Unit al Marii Britanii și Irlandei de Nord si-a asumat pe deplin statutul de stat terț în relația cu statele Uniunii Europene, inclusiv cu România. Din această perspectivă, regimul de vize și condițiile de călătorie pentru cetățenii europeni, inclusiv cei români, s-au schimbat.

În acest context, Ministerul Afacerilor Externe/ Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Romania face următoarele precizări:

✅Conform noilor reglementări anunțate de Regatul Unit al Marii Britanii și Irlandei de Nord, începând cu 1 ianuarie 2021, cetățenii români pot intra pe teritoriul Regatului Unit pentru șederi de scurtă durată (ex. în scop turistic, în vizită etc.) pentru o perioadă de până la 6 luni într-un an, fără a avea nevoie de o viză de intrare. Cu toate acestea, cetățenii români care doresc să muncească în cele 6 luni trebuie să obțină, în prealabil, o viză de intrare.

✅Cetățenii români cu settled si pre-settled status pe schema de rezidențe EUSS vor putea să călătorească în UK folosind documentele naționale de identitate până la data de 31 decembrie 2025.

⚠Cetățenii români care doresc să se deplaseze pe teritoriul UK pentru o durată mai mare de șase luni (pentru activități de muncă, pentru studii etc.) au nevoie, începând cu data de 1 ianuarie 2021, de viză din partea autorităților britanice. Sunt două modalități pentru obținerea vizei, astfel:

✅Cetățenii români posesori ai unui pașaport simplu electronic pot obține viza online, prin accesarea paginii : https://www.gov.uk/browse/visas-immigration).

În cadrul acestui portal, solicitanții au la dispoziție un ghid conținând procedura detaliată de obținere a vizei. Persoanele care posedă un pașaport biometric vor putea completa cererea, inclusiv confirmarea identității, utilizând o aplicație pentru telefoane inteligente (tip smartphone). MAE subliniază că solicitările pentru obținerea vizei nu se pot depune în baza cărții de identitate.

✅Cetățenii români care nu dețin pașaport simplu electronic și aplică în baza unui pașaport simplu temporar trebuie să depună documentația personal la centrul regional pentru vize din România – Bucharest Visa Application Centre, DBH-Group Serviced office, adresa: București, sector 1, strada Buzești nr. 50-52, et.2 Business Center. Pentru depunerea documentației, este necesară programarea prealabilă online, prin accesarea paginii : https://pos.tlscontact.com/bbu_en

👍Autoritățile britanice au operaționalizat deja procedurile pentru primirea de solicitări de viză în următoarele scopuri: studii, activități de muncă (muncitori calificați, lucrători înalt calificați în anumite domenii/Global Talent, personal medical și asistenți), afaceri (inovare, desfășurarea de afaceri tip start-up).

https://www.gov.uk/apply-to-come-to-the-uk

Solicitanții de viză vor avea de plătit o taxă de viză. Lista taxelor este disponibilă la: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/visa-regulations-revised-table/fees-5-october

⚠⚠Pentru orice persoană care are mențiuni înscrise în cazierul judiciar, precum și cele cărora le-a fost refuzată, în trecut, intrarea pe teritoriul UK, autoritățile britanice recomandă depunerea unei cereri pentru obținerea vizei și pentru deplasările de scurtă durată (sub 6 luni), potrivit datelor comunicate prin intermediul portalului https://www.gov.uk/browse/visas-immigration.

MAE precizează că aceste noi condiții sunt rezultatul deciziei autorităților britanice, care, de la data de 1 ianuarie 2021, au implementat un nou sistem de imigrație bazat pe puncte (point-based immigration system – PBS).

Informatii suplimentare

Autoritățile britanice au pus la dispoziție mai multe pagini cu privire la noul sistem de imigrație în Regatul Unit, unele inclusiv în limba română. Acestea pot fi consultate la:

https://www.gov.uk/government/news/sistemul-de-imigrare-pe-baza-de-puncte-al-marii-britanii.ro

www.gov.uk/MutareainMareaBritanie

Pentru verificarea îndeplinirii condițiilor legate de viză, autoritățile britanice au elaborat o pagină care poate ghida aplicanții : https://www.gov.uk/check-uk-visa.

MAE recomandă cetățenilor români să se informeze, în prealabil, inaintea efectuării unei deplasări în UK, utilizând sursele oficiale sus-menționate. Noile reguli nu afectează cetățenii români acoperiți de Acordul de retragere și eligibili pentru EU Settlement Scheme.
