Romania Work Visa Fraud: How Fake Permits Trick Bangladeshi Workers
Romania's construction, agriculture and manufacturing sectors have drawn a growing number of Bangladeshi workers in recent years, largely through manpower agencies. That growth has come with a matching rise in fraud complaints — workers paying large sums for a work permit and visa that turn out to be fabricated, or tied to an employer that never sponsored them.
Warning signs
- A work permit (aviz de muncă) number the agency won't let you verify independently
- An employer that exists on paper but can't be reached directly to confirm your contract
- A visa sticker or approval letter with printing or formatting that looks inconsistent with genuine samples
- Recruitment fees far above what's typically charged for this corridor, justified as covering "expedited processing"
How to check it yourself
Romania's General Inspectorate for Immigration (Inspectoratul General pentru Imigrări, IGI) and the Ministry of Labour and Social Solidarity oversee work-permit issuance. Confirming your permit and sponsoring employer through these channels — or via the Romanian consulate handling your visa application — is the most reliable check available before you pay further fees.
Where a document check helps
We cross-check your work permit, employment contract and visa for internal consistency and tampering, and a specialist confirms what can be verified through official channels — catching a fabricated permit before a worker has committed to travel.
Probashi Visa Checker is an independent fraud-risk assessment service, not a government body, embassy or recruiting agency. We cannot guarantee a visa is genuine — only the issuing government has the final word. What we provide is evidence: automated screening plus a human specialist's official-source lookup and written verdict.
