History

In the first decade of Miss Grand International, Romania has always sent its representatives to compete, the license of which belonged to a Bucharest-based event organizer, Exclusive Events International, which is directed by Ernest Hadrian Böhm;^[3][8][9] all of the representatives during such a period were directly hand-picked, no Miss Grand national contest was held.^{[1][3][9][16]}

Nonetheless, two years after Böhm granted the Miss Universe Romania license, his partnership with the Miss Grand International organizer, MGI PLC, was discontinued, and no other Romanian organs renewed the franchise, resulting in no Romanian representative in the Miss Grand International from 2020 to 2022.

Romania was expected to return in the 2023 competition in Vietnam.
