Summary/Abstract: At the level of 2022, in the European Union, the presence of fragile, incoherent legislation is noticeable in the matter of franchising. The need for uniform regulation is justified as franchising, in most cases, has a significant cross-border dimension, and therefore directly affects the functioning of the internal market. To the same extent, it is necessary to know the existing self-regulatory instruments both at the Union level and at the level of the Member States, as well as the legislative practices of the Member States in the field of franchises. At the national level, we identify the tendency of the Romanian legislator to “redefine” some terms or “reset” some mechanisms specific to the franchise using legislative instruments but also self-regulatory instruments, suitable for the Union space. The present study aims to make a brief analysis of the above-mentioned aspects with priority reference to the innovative elements in the above-mentioned field.
