Who hosts in Bucharest
Why put a server in Romania?
Bucharest puts you in the EU and in the neighbourhood of South-East Europe. The physics floor is 4 ms to Istanbul, 7 ms to Athens and 9 ms to Warsaw, and InterLAN-IX lists 124 connected networks, with RoNIX and Balcan-IX alongside.
Romania has been in the EU since 2007 and a full Schengen member since 1 January 2025. The GDPR applies, supervised by the ANSPDCP, and so does the Digital Services Act. If you want EU rules close to Eastern Europe, this is the location.
Bucharest pairs well with Chișinău: the same neighbourhood, two legal systems, one inside the EU and one outside.

The fastest a round trip from Bucharest could ever be: light in fibre covers about 200 km per millisecond, over the straight-line distance. Real routes are longer and add equipment, so expect more. We only suggest another location when it saves at least 10 ms, and some neighbouring countries don’t connect directly, so a closer location can still be slower. Hourly billing makes it cheap to test both.
