Romania Public Tenders 2026: Live Romanian Government Con...

Romania's public procurement system is regulated by Law 98/2016 on Public Procurement, which transposed EU Directive 2014/24/EU. ANAP (Agenția Națională pentru Achiziții Publice) oversees policy, compliance, and provides methodological guidance to contracting authorities. The SEAP/SICAP portal is Romania's mandatory national e-procurement platform for above-threshold contracts and an increasing share of below-threshold procurement.

Romania is one of the EU's most active procurement markets for EU-funded infrastructure investment. Construction dominates procurement spend, with major projects in motorway expansion, Danube river infrastructure, railway modernisation, and energy transition (offshore wind, hydropower upgrades, and nuclear energy). The National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) allocates €29.2 billion to Romania — one of the largest EU country allocations — creating a multi-year pipeline of tenders in construction, IT, green economy, healthcare, and public administration reform.

Romania's procurement market offers substantial opportunities but requires navigation of a complex contracting authority landscape spanning central ministries, regional development agencies, county councils, and municipalities. Tender documents are in Romanian. EU co-financed contracts — representing a large proportion of high-value tenders — are subject to structured eligibility criteria and audit frameworks. International suppliers most commonly enter via Romanian subsidiaries or consortium arrangements with established local partners.
