2025 figures: 2 short-stay Schengen visa applications were lodged at Romania’s embassy in Athens, and 2 visas were issued.

Across all Schengen consulates in Greece, 28.5% of applications were refused in 2025; Romania’s rate worldwide was 11.5%. Romania received the 11th largest number of applications of the 13 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 Greece.
