Dentists with non-EU specialist titles seeking recognition in Romania must pay a fee of up to 2,000 euros. The base fee is 1,000 euros, doubling if a skills test is required. This decision, effective from October 21, 2026, aims to cover evaluation costs and ensure patient safety by verifying qualifications. The recognition process is managed by the Ministry of Health and the Romanian Dental College, with no annual fees imposed on practicing dentists. The fee is payable in lei at the current exchange rate, and does not guarantee title recognition, as legal requirements must also be met.
