Using a UK university degree certificate in Romania?

You may need your degree certificate properly certified and apostilled before a Romanian employer, university, regulator, immigration office, HR department or public authority accepts it.

Romania is covered by the Hague Apostille system. For UK documents used in Romania, the usual route is therefore UK solicitor certification followed by a UK FCDO apostille, rather than Romanian Embassy legalisation. The UK Legalisation Office confirms that it legalises documents by checking the relevant UK signature, stamp or seal and attaching an apostille.

Why Romania Usually Does Not Need Embassy Legalisation

Romania is a Hague Apostille Convention country. This means an apostille is generally the legalisation method used for foreign public documents between Hague member states. Romania’s National Centre for Recognition and Equivalence of Diplomas describes an apostille as a certificate issued by competent authorities in a country that is party to the Hague Convention for documents presented in another country that is also party to the Convention.

For UK documents, the FCDO apostille is usually the key legalisation step for Romania.

In most cases, Romanian Embassy legalisation is not required after the UK apostille.

However, you should still check the exact Romanian receiving authority. Some employers, universities, regulators or public bodies may ask for a specific certification wording, sworn translation or document format.

Degree Verification Before Apostille

Apostille does not prove that the degree itself is genuine.

The apostille confirms the UK signature, stamp or seal on the certified document.

That is why degree verification can matter.

Where needed, we can verify your degree with the issuing institution or through recognised platforms before solicitor certification.

This creates a stronger chain:

university verification → solicitor certification → FCDO apostille → Romania

This is especially useful for Romanian employers, universities, HR teams or professional bodies that need confidence in the authenticity of your UK qualification.
