Summary/Abstract: The informal economy remains a sensitive issue at global and national level and the concern of decision-makers to find the best methods to combat and reduce it has intensified in recent years. The causes are multiple, from the effects generated by the economic and financial crisis of 2008-2009, to the costs of the pandemic generated by the Covid 19 virus and the current geopolitical uncertainty. The purpose of the paper is to analyze the size of the informal economy in Romania between 2009 and 2022, its drivers/causes and the directions pursued/proposed fiscal measures to reduce it. We use a descriptive and empirical methodology in this regard, by using bibliographic sources from specialized literature and statistical data provided by relevant institutions.
