Moldova, along with Turkey and China, is one of the main countries that supply Romania with migrants. These are the findings of the study entitled “Immigration and Asylum in Romania - 2006”, conducted by the inter-ministerial Group for coordination of the National Strategy for Migration. The conclusions referring to the impact of immigration on Romania reveal that in 2006 foreigners kept a high level of interest in coming to Romania for visiting purposes (I place), doing business (II) and travelling (III). The number of applications for short-stay visas (in particular, submitted by foreign citizens coming from countries with migration trends) and for long-stay visas increased significantly. It is also found a significant increase in the number of foreign citizens that got married to Romanians, who, for this reason, have temporarily resided in Romania, 17% of the total number. Moldova accounts for 18.1% of the total number of foreign citizens in Romania that are married to Romanians, after Syrians - 42.3%, Lebanon citizens - 28.9%, Turks – 23.9%; Ukrainians - 20.5%. The number of foreign citizens who applied for a long-stay visa for the purpose of employment in Romania considerably rose last year (+27%), as well as the number of foreigners who were given the right to stay temporarily for the same purpose (+57%), which shows that Romania’s transformation from a transit state into a migrant-receiving country is irreversible. On the whole, the number of foreigners staying in Romania at present represents only 0.2% of the total population. Of the number of Romania’s active population (about 9.7 mln), employed foreigners represents just 0.58%, a fact that has no negative implications for the workforce market.
