Eighteen years after joining the European Union, Romania has become a full member of the Schengen area, lifting internal land border controls. This moment was marked by the symbolic lifting of the last border barrier between Romania and Bulgaria in the presence of officials from both countries. Joining Schengen brings significant benefits for citizens and businesses alike.
