CSRD in Romania
Romania transposed the sustainability reporting rules, but no maximum fine here can be traced to a provision that names the sustainability report — so this page shows none. The figure of roughly €600 in circulation is borrowed from the general accounting law.

Where do these figures come from?
The transposition instrument carries no fine of its own
OMF 85/2024 transposes the reporting rules and contains no penalty provisions — the amounts in it are company-size thresholds, not fines. The RON 2,000–3,000 usually attributed to Romania sits in Legea 82/1991, which never mentions sustainability reporting, and Art. 42 of that law prices contraventions across several tiers from RON 400 up to RON 30,000. Which tier a missing sustainability report would fall under is an inference, not a reading, which is why this page publishes no maximum.
Romania transposed through OMF 85/2024, published in Monitorul Oficial 75 on 26 January 2024. That instrument contains no penalty provisions of any kind. The RON 2,000–3,000 contravention fine usually quoted for Romania — about €400 to €600 — comes from Legea 82/1991, the general accounting law, which contains no mention of sustainability reporting; it is applied by analogy rather than by a provision that names the report. Because the register only publishes a maximum it can trace to a source, no figure is shown for Romania. The Ministry of Finance and ANAF enforce. OMF 1421/2025 later deferred waves 2 and 3 by two years.
Why does this page show no figure?
The register publishes a maximum only where it can be traced to a source that names the obligation. Romania fails that test in both directions: the transposition order creates no penalty, and the accounting law the penalty is borrowed from does not mention sustainability reporting.
Earlier versions of this page published RON 3,000 as Romania's maximum, and the register used it as the floor of its own comparison. That was an estimate presented as a traced figure. Art. 42 of Legea 82/1991 runs from RON 400 to RON 30,000 depending on which contravention applies, so the number published was one tier among several, chosen by inference.
A contravention in Romanian law is a minor administrative offence rather than a corporate sanction designed for group-scale dissuasion, so the applicable amount is likely to be small — but likely is not traced, and the register does not publish likely.
OMF 1421/2025, published in Monitorul Oficial 786 on 22 Aug 2025, defers waves 2 and 3 by two years. Wave 1 is unchanged.
What are the penalties?
No maximum traced to a provision naming the sustainability report. Romania transposed; the penalty position is unresolved.
No figure traced to a primary sourceno figure traced to a primary source
OMF 85/2024 contains no penalties. Legea 82/1991 contains no sustainability provisions. The RON 2,000–3,000 in circulation is applied by analogy from the general accounting regime.

Common questions
- What is the CSRD fine in Romania?
- No maximum can be traced to a Romanian provision that names the sustainability report, so this register publishes none. OMF 85/2024, the transposition instrument, contains no penalties, and the RON 2,000–3,000 usually quoted comes from Legea 82/1991, the general accounting law, applied by analogy.
- Is Romania's CSRD fine really about €600?
- That figure is widely quoted but is not traced to a sustainability provision. It is one tier of Art. 42 of Legea 82/1991, a law that does not mention sustainability reporting, and that article runs from RON 400 to RON 30,000 depending on the contravention. Treat €600 as an estimate, not a maximum.
