About us

Who are we?

The Dutch Economic Network for Romania consists of the Department for Economic and Environmental Affairs of the Embassy in Bucharest, and in the Hague, two people working dedicated to Romania at the EVD - the Agency for International Business and Cooperation. In addition, the Office of the Agricultural Attaché at the Embassy in Bucharest deals with the agri-food sector.

 
What do we offer?

For general business information, the  first point of contact is the Romania desk at the EVD in The Hague. The Romania-page on the EVD website contains lots of information, and experienced staff will provide you with all the general business information you might further need. You can find information on various sectors, as well as some market studies on the website as well.

 After your first orientation with the EVD, you are welcome to visit us in Romania for any further general information about doing business here. Please feel free to contact us to schedule an appointment.

Further, the Embassy publishes a Monthly Economic Newsletter to which you can subscribe free of charge. The Newsletter summarises news that may be relevant to Dutch companies and includes some monthly statistical data. Also, relevant events such as trade missions or seminars are announced.

Partner search

Looking for a distributor or perhaps a manufacturer? The EVD and the Embassy will gladly provide you with lists of potential partners in Romania. The better you can describe what you need, the better our search result will be !

 In addition, Individual Market Approach is a tailor-made service for individual Dutch companies that are looking for potential counterparts in Romania. It is a co-production of EVD, and the Embassy. The outcome of the service is a market scan, which includes information on potential counterparts, other relevant organisations and specific market data. More information on www.evd.nl/marktbewerking.


Trade missions/ collective activities

We are usually involved when trade missions from the Netherlands to Romania are being organised. The Embassy can bring its contribution to the organisation of topical seminars, usually directed at Romanian (local) government to share Dutch experiences in that area. The purpose of these events is to assist Romania to implement different aspects of the EU-acquis. These events can have a commercial angle as well.

 
Authorities

If you encounter serious difficulties with Romanian authorities, the Embassy will try to assist you within the limits of its mandate.
