Romania keeps placement allowance at 1,194 lei in 2026; disabled children get 1,791 lei

Romania's placement allowance remains unchanged at 1,194 lei per month in 2026, as the social reference indicator (ISR) was held at the previous year's level. Children classified as disabled receive a higher amount of 1,791 lei. The decision reflects a static social benefit, with no adjustment for inflation, potentially affecting foster families and child welfare.
