Romania: Advisory on Potential Threats to Religious Institutions and the New European Entry/Exit System

The US Embassy in Bucharest issued a security alert on 11 October about threats potentially targeting a synagogue, temple, or mosque in Romania during the October 11-13 weekend. Exercise increased caution near religious institutions in Romania around this period.

From November, the new European Entry/Exit System will start for all non-EU nationals, including Australians, travelling in or out of the Schengen Area, which Romania is a partial member.

We advise:

Exercise normal safety precautions in Romania.
