driving license fees vehicle registration DGPCI Romania document costs

The General Directorate for Driving Licenses and Vehicle Registration (DGPCI) has announced an increase in fees for several automotive documents in Romania, effective September 15, 2026.

Key price changes include: - Driving licenses: increasing from 89 lei to 139 lei. - Vehicle registration certificates (talon): increasing from 49 lei to 76 lei. - Provisional circulation authorizations: increasing from 13 lei to 25 lei.

Authorities have warned that payments made before the September 15 deadline cannot be used for requests made after the new rates take effect. However, an exception exists for examination files; fees paid for examination files registered before the deadline remain valid for the duration of the file's validity. Payments can be processed online via Ghișeul.ro, through SelfPay terminals, or at counters.

Separately, a new legislative project has been submitted to Parliament regarding emergency vehicle access. The proposal aims to establish clear rules for creating a 'rescue corridor' in traffic, with penalties including fines up to 1,000 lei and 30-day license suspensions for drivers who fail to yield to emergency services.
