Nowhere for a record to hide
Romania's court records aren't held in one place, they're spread across 188 local courts, 41 county courts, and 15 courts of appeal. Zinc's check covers all of them so you get the full picture, wherever a candidate's record happens to sit.
Faster hiring, less waiting
As you grow into new markets, you shouldn’t have to keep adding new tools or processes to keep up. With Zinc, you get the same candidate experience, the same dashboard, and the same support, wherever your hiring takes you next.
Confidence in your compliance
Romania's Labour Code only allows checks that verify professional and personal skills, nothing broader. Zinc’s custom checks packages help you understand exactly what you’re checking. If you have questions, Zinc’s team is here to help you navigate the Romanian Labour Code restrictions.
“The ability to customise packages is really useful for us as a firm providing an array of services, because different teams need different levels of coverage. Checks are returned quickly and efficiently. We use Zinc every day, and it’s super user-friendly, clear, and easy to read.”

What does Zinc's Romanian criminal check cover?
Zinc’s Romanian criminal check covers a Ministry of Justice database spanning the High Court of Cassation and Justice, 15 courts of appeal, 41 county courts, the Bucharest Municipal Court, and 188 local courts, with coverage back to 2012\.
Can Zinc run credit or adverse-financial checks in Romania?
Yes. Zinc's Romanian financial integrity check draws on two official sources: the ANAF whitelist of taxpayers with no overdue tax obligations, and Romanian court data covering the Supreme Court, Appeal Courts, and First Instance Courts. This is the same court network used for our Romanian criminal check, giving you a joined-up view of a candidate's financial and legal history.
Does the credit/adverse financial check leave a footprint on the candidate in Romania?
No. Zinc's Romanian financial integrity check does not leave a footprint on the candidate's credit profile, so it won't affect their creditworthiness.
How quickly are referees contacted, and what happens if they don't respond?
Zinc emails the referee immediately once a reference is requested.
If there's no response, contact continues on a fixed schedule: email day 1, text day 3 (if a phone number is provided), then emails on days 4, 7, and 14\. After five failed attempts, the candidate is notified and asked to provide a new referee.
