Summary/Abstract: The Romanian Civil Procedure Code stipulates that the term foreign decisions refers to "the contentious or uncontentious jurisdiction documents of the courts, notarial documents or documents of any other competent authorities of member state of the European Union". When it comes to the jurisdiction the Article 1103 of the Code stipulates that foreign decisions that are not willingly abidden by those obligated to execute them can be enforced on Romanian territory, based on the acceptance and at the request of the person of interest, by the district court where the sentence is to be carried out. In various spheres, such as civil, trade, succession, contract divorce or parental accountability, there were created European regulations that include both similar and domain-specific dispositions.
