Document Search and Romanian Passport for a Businesswoman from Moscow

Marina, 38, a businesswoman from Moscow, turned to Relocitizen with a request for fast Romanian citizenship. The basis for this request was information from her grandmother that her mother (great-grandmother Anna) had been born in Bessarabia in 1914, which later became part of Romania. However, the key problem was the complete lack of official documents to confirm this fact.

Relocitizen specialists developed a comprehensive strategic plan consisting of several stages. The first and most important step was a thorough genealogical search. The lawyers pinpointed the exact place of birth of her great-grandmother — a village in a historical region, which allowed narrowing down the scope of requests. Simultaneously, the company prepared a detailed historical reference justifying the legitimacy of the citizenship claim. Official and legally correct requests were sent not only to state archives but also to church archives in Moldova, where the records from the Romanian administration period were preserved.

Thanks to Relocitizen ‘s systematic approach and professionalism, Anna successfully received a repatriation certificate and then Romanian citizenship in record time — 16 months. Now Anna is an EU citizen, which opened new horizons for her and her family. Anna highlights that the key to success was the high competence of Relocitizen specialists, who took full responsibility for solving all the problems “turnkey.”
