-== Records Access ==
-Access to records in Romania is granted by the first two sections of [http://www.cdep.ro/pls/dic/site2015.page?den=act2_2&par1=0&idl=2 Article 31], Title II, Chapter 2 of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitution_of_Romania 1991 Constitution]:
-# A person's right of access to any information of public interest shall not be restricted
-# The public authorities according to their competence, shall be bound to provide correct information of the citizens in public affairs and matters of personal interest.
-The physical condition of some records may preclude direct access to the material. This may also prohibit photocopying or imaging of the record. Where records have been transcribed those will generally be offered in place of the original copy.
-Archives staff may only be able to do limited research, if at all. If they are, they are authorized to charge for the service and any copies made. Requests must be specific in nature.
-European Union privacy laws may limit access to materials less than 100 years old. Records may only be available to persons who can document they are direct descendants of the persons identified in the requested records. If the record concerns a person who is still living it may be necessary to secure their written permission.
