Abstract: Regarding the policy of visas, at the institutional level of the Union it is aimed the establishment of a “common corpus” of legislative documents, especially by strengthening and developing the acquis in this area. The Community Code on Visas – Regulation (EC) No 810/2009 – represents the best way of achieving the harmonization and completion of the legislation applicable in the area of visas. The new Code states a unique ensemble of instructions regarding the practical appliance of this legislation and it not only clarifies the already existing texts, but also aims the integration of the new evolutions in the area of granting visas and in the area of security. Regarding the regulation of the issue of visas in Romania, Government Urgent Injunction No 194/2002 has suffered important amendments as a consequence of the Community Code on Visas’ entrance in force, nevertheless considering the fact that Romania still applies the Schengen first category aquis, and on the other hand as a result of signing the Agreement between Romanian Government and the Republic of Moldova Government on the local border traffic, signed in accordance with the Regulation (EC) No 1931/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 December 2006 laying down rules on local border traffic at the external land borders of the Member States.
