General Employee Pay Regulations in Romania

Minimum wage

The national gross monthly minimum wage is RON 3,300. 

Frequency

Most employers pay monthly. Some pay biweekly but still calculate the amount for the whole month and consider the first two weeks’ pay as an advance on the monthly salary.

Payday

Usually, employers pay salaries the following month, with the payday date ranging between the current month’s last working day and the 15th of the following month.

Payment requirements

Employers must use Romanian currency to pay employees. Using a local bank account is the preferred option. Romanian authorities don’t recommend using a foreign account, since tracking due to any tax issues can be problematic.
