2024 figures: 4 short-stay Schengen visa applications were lodged at Romania’s embassy in Ottawa, and 3 visas were issued.
Romania issues Schengen visas at 4 locations in Canada; this office handled 4% of their 110 applications in 2024. Refusal rates elsewhere: Toronto 12.2%, Vancouver 0.0% and Montreal 8.0%. Each office serves the applicants who live in its own consular district, so the rates also reflect who applies where, not only how strictly files are assessed.
Across all Schengen consulates in Canada, 5.0% of applications were refused in 2024; Romania’s rate worldwide was 9.4%. Romania received the 18th largest number of applications of the 23 Schengen states represented here.
Romania only began issuing Schengen visas on 31 March 2024, so its 2024 figures cover part of the year. The statistics count applications, not people, and include every nationality that applies here, not only citizens of Canada.
