Country context
HG 237/2001 requires the fișa de anunțare a sosirii și plecării in structuri de primire turistice. OUG 194/2002 art. 12 adds 24-hour police communication for foreign guests in hotels / amenajări turistice (3-day notice for private hosting). Classification under HG 1267/2010, municipal taxa de promovare turistică (Bucharest 10 lei/night for 2026), and ANAF short-stay occupancy sheets sit on top. Full Schengen member since 1 Jan 2025 (air/sea from 31 Mar 2024).
Remote arrival works when fișa-ready guest identity data is captured before access — police communication (foreign guests) and municipal tax remittance run as separate clocks afterward.
