Over the past seventeen years, the level of out-migration from Romania has been constantly examined by national and international researchers. In particular, a growing interest has been noted following the accession of Romania to the European Union in January 2007. Drawing on IPP data collected in January 2007 on a representative sample (N = 1014) of the Romanian adult population, the present paper intends to assess the current level of potential temporary out-migration and compare it to international migratory tendencies registered in the country in the early 1990s. Multivariate analyses will be used to identify the factors more likely to predict short-term labor migration of Romanians.
