❓ FAQ
USD to RON FAQ.
Romania IT outsourcing to US — currency considerations?
Romania has become Eastern Europe's largest IT outsourcing destination after Poland, with Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, and Iași hosting major US tech captives (Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, Amazon, Endava). US clients pay in USD or EUR; Romanian providers typically convert 60-70% to RON for local salaries while holding 30-40% in EUR for stability. For US clients planning forward USD-RON contracts: NBR Markets and major Romanian banks (BCR, BRD, Banca Transilvania, ING Romania) offer competitive 3-12 month forward rates.
Why is RON more stable than HUF or PLN?
Romania has run relatively prudent fiscal policy compared to Poland (which faced rule-of-law disputes affecting EU fund disbursements) and Hungary (which had aggressive monetary easing during 2020-2021). NBR has maintained a stable managed-float against EUR within a soft band. Romanian inflation peaked at 16.4% in late 2022 but normalized faster than HUF (Hungary peak 25%). RON has lost ~12% against USD over 5 years, less than HUF (~28%) and similar to PLN.
Romania Eurozone entry — likely?
Romania has been an EU member since 2007 but has not adopted the Euro. Official target date has slipped from 2024 to 2026 to "no later than 2029" in recent fiscal updates. Meeting Maastricht criteria (especially debt-to-GDP) has proven harder than expected. As of 2026, Romania uses RON with a soft EUR target, similar to Bulgaria pre-Euro adoption. Eurozone entry would compress USD-RON volatility toward EUR-USD dynamics — but this is unlikely before 2030.
