Reference metadata describe statistical concepts and methodologies used for the collection and generation of data. They provide information on data quality and, since they are strongly content-oriented, assist users in interpreting the data. Reference metadata, unlike structural metadata, can be decoupled from the data.
Data collection on intra-corporate transfers is based on Article 24 of Directive 2014/66/EU on the conditions of entry and residence of third-country nationals in the framework of an intra-corporate transfer.
The following datasets are collected under this framework:
Intra-corporate transferee permits issued, renewed and withdrawn by type of permit, length of validity and citizenship (migr_resict1_1);
Intra-corporate transferee permits issued by type of permit, economic sector and citizenship (migr_resict1_2);
Intra-corporate transferee permits issued by type of permit, length of validity, transferee position and citizenship (migr_resict1_3);
Intra-corporate notifications received by length of validity and citizenship (migr_resict2_1);
Intra-corporate notifications received by economic sector and citizenship (migr_resict2_2);
Permits for long-term mobility issued and notifications received by citizenship and first Member State of residence (migr_resict3).
Directive 2014/66/EU was transposed at national level on 24 August 2016.

RESPER statistics in Romania are based on administrative sources. Romania is following the requirements of the Regulation (EC) 862/2007 and the quality of the data may be assessed as very good. The key users of RESPER statistics are Eurostat, national ministries, various N.G.O.'s and researchers. The data relevance can be assessed as very good according to frequent informal and formal communication and feedback from users. The accuracy of the data produced by Romania is considered to be very good. Statistics benefit from the well established data collection and as well from the Regulation (EC) 862/2007 which defines certain deadlines for data transmission to Eurostat. Regulation (EC) 862/2007 ensures the harmonisation of the concepts and definitions applied by the Member States for reporting the RESPER data to Eurostat.
