Regulatory Framework in Romania

Legal Framework

Romania regulates controlled substances under Law 143/2000 on preventing and combating illicit trafficking and consumption of drugs, administered by the National Anti-Drug Agency (ANA) and Ministry of Health. Romania implements EU directives and maintains national lists of controlled high-risk substances and psychoactive substances.

Scheduling History

Romanian drug policy has modernized substantially following EU accession, with enhanced monitoring capabilities and participation in EU early warning systems. The country has been active in scheduling novel psychoactive substances, particularly synthetic cannabinoids and cathinones, responding to regional trafficking patterns and EU-level risk assessments.

Research Exceptions

Research on controlled substances in Romania requires permits from the National Medicines and Medical Devices Agency and compliance with security protocols. Academic institutions must demonstrate scientific merit and maintain documentation meeting EU standards. Romania supports legitimate research while maintaining strict controls on substance diversion and unauthorized use.

Penalties & Enforcement

Romanian penalties for drug offenses are strict. Trafficking controlled substances can result in 5-25 years imprisonment for serious offenses, with enhanced penalties for organized crime involvement or large quantities. Cultivation and production carry 10-25 years. Personal possession is punishable by 3 months to 2 years imprisonment. Romania enforces drug laws actively, particularly targeting commercial operations.

Recent Legislative Changes

Recent Romanian regulatory focus includes synthetic opioids, novel stimulants, and designer benzodiazepines. The country has strengthened customs enforcement and online sales monitoring. ANA regularly publishes updates on newly scheduled substances and coordinates with EU agencies on emerging threat identification and risk assessment.
