Correct path

The right path for Romania

Apostille via Notarius Publicus is enough for CNP, ANAF and CNRED. The embassy on Östermalmsgatan handles passports and consular work, not that chain.

Overview

How it works for Romania

CNP, ANAF and CNRED often require an apostille on Swedish originals. Romania is a Hague country and in the EU: Notarius Publicus apostilles in Sweden. MAE and Romanian offices apostille Romanian originals, not Swedish extracts. The embassy at Östermalmsgatan 36 does passports, CNP work for Romanian citizens and consular work, not apostille toward CNRED. When the form requires Romanian we run authorized translation in parallel, with ă â î ș ț. Romanian is not Moldovan; Kammarkollegiet lists Romanian as its own language. Apostille for Romania is not a Schengen visa.

When needed

When do Romanian recipients want an apostille?

The request comes from CNP, ANAF, CNRED or a primărie in Bucharest or Cluj-Napoca. Typical cases:

CNP papers toward tax and population records
A diploma for CNRED in Bucharest
ANAF papers toward tax
A power of attorney for an agent before a Romanian notar public
A company extract for ONRC or a counterparty in Timișoara
Property toward ANCPI in Iași

1 The checklist from CNP, ANAF or CNRED

The request comes from the CNP office, ANAF or CNRED in Bucharest. The embassy on Östermalmsgatan is not on that list.
2 Romanian when the form requires it

CNRED, ANAF and many primării rarely take unprocessed Swedish. Authorized Romanian runs in parallel, with ă â î ș ț. Not Moldovan.
3 A power of attorney for a notar public is notarised first

An agent in Bucharest or Cluj-Napoca wants an attested power of attorney before apostille. Notarius Publicus first.
4 Apostille via Notarius Publicus

Romania is a Hague country. Apostille replaces MFA and embassy stamps. MAE does not stamp Swedish originals toward CNRED. That is not a Schengen visa.
5 Return, ready for Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Timișoara or Iași

You get the documents by tracked post, ready for CNP, ANAF or CNRED on the ground.

Translation, timing and embassy

Why Romanian is usually needed

CNRED, ANAF and Romanian primării rarely accept unprocessed Swedish. Authorized Romanian from a Kammarkollegiet translator is its own step, even when apostille already covers legalisation. Not Moldovan. From SEK 1,495. Translation plus apostille from SEK 1,895.

Timeline for CNP, ANAF or CNRED

Apostille usually takes a few business days in Basic once originals are in. Add time for Romanian translation and any notarisation. The total depends on:

whether a power of attorney must be notarised first
whether authorized Romanian must finish in parallel
Notarius Publicus capacity
how many documents sit in the same CNP or CNRED file

Romanian Embassy vs apostille

The embassy at Östermalmsgatan 36 handles passports, CNP for Romanian citizens and consular work. It does not apostille papers for CNRED or ANAF. For Swedish originals, Notarius Publicus is the right office.
