Bulgaria And Romania Join Schengen Free-travel Area On January 1st 2025
The first people enter Romania from Bulgaria without border control at the Danube Bridge border crossing after the two countries enter the Schengen free-travel zone in the first minutes of January 1, 2025. The border checkpoint barrier at the Danube Bridge is symbolically raised at 12:01 am, marking the full membership of Bulgaria and Romania in Europe's Schengen zone after a 13-year wait.
