Summary/Abstract: Adoption is governed throughout the entire procedure by the principle of confidentiality. But the adoptee's right to know and establish his identity is guaranteed by art. 26 para. (1) of the Romanian Constitution, according to which "authorities respect and protect intimate, family and private life". Interests regarding the information on the adoption can be multiple, and the holders of the request can be both the adopted person and the natural parents or biological relatives. However, access to this information may disrupt the lives of other participants in the procedure. That is why the legislator paid special attention to the general legal regime of information regarding adoption, which is established by special law, respectively Law no. 273/2004 regarding the adoption procedure. The present study proposes an exhaustive analysis of domestic and international regulations regarding information on adoption, as well as the procedure to be followed to obtain it.
