No, U.S. passport holders can enter Romania without a visa for tourism or business stays up to 90 days. A valid passport must be presented at the initial EU point of entry, typically Frankfurt.
+ What’s the best time to travel to Romania?
The best times to visit Romania are spring (April to June) and fall (September to October), when temperatures are pleasant and crowds are smaller—ideal for castles, Carpathian hikes, and historic cities like Brașov and Sibiu.
+ Are meals included on Condor flights to Romania?

+ What currency is used in Romania?
Romania uses the Romanian leu (RON). Credit cards are accepted in most cities, but cash is handy in smaller towns and markets. ATMs are widely available.
+ Is English widely spoken in Romania?
Romanian is the official language, but English is common in major cities, hotels, and restaurants. In rural areas it’s less frequent, so basic phrases or a translation app can help.
