The third season of the Romanian reality talent show Vocea României premiered on ProTV on September 28, 2013. Pavel Bartoș and Nicoleta Luciu returned as hosts, with Vlad Roșca as the social media correspondent. All four coaches returned for their third season. The show was moved from its usual Tuesday evening slot to Saturday evening.
This season brought rule changes. During the battle round, opposing coaches have the ability to steal the singer that was sent home by the original coach. If more than one coach hits their button to recruit the singer in question, it is up to the contestant to decide which coach he or she wants to work with. Each coach can save two contestants, which means the battle round will end with nine singers on each team, rather than seven. The sing-off further reduces each team to eight singers for the live shows, rather than six as in the previous season.
The season finale aired on December 26, 2013. , mentored by coach Horia Brenciu, was declared winner of the season. It was Brenciu's second consecutive victory as a coach.
Pre-selections took place in the following cities:

The first of six pre-recorded audition episodes aired on Saturday, September 28, 2013. The season 2 finalists opened the show with a performance of "Don't Stop Believin'".
The second episode was aired on October 5, 2013.
The third episode was aired on October 12, 2013.
The fourth episode was aired on October 19, 2013.

The sixth and last blind audition episode aired on November 2, 2013.
After the blind auditions, each coach had fourteen contestants for the battle rounds, taped October 10 and 11, 2013, at the MediaPro Studios, Buftea, and aired November 9–23, 2013. Coaches began narrowing down the playing field by training the contestants with the help of "trusted advisors". Each episode featured eight or ten battles consisting of pairings from within each team, and each battle concluding with the respective coach eliminating one of the two contestants. "Steals" were introduced this season, where each coach could steal two contestants from another team when they lost their battle round. The names of the coaches who attempted to steal each losing contestant are ticked; the chosen coach is highlighted. The trusted advisors for these episodes are:
