Servers in country

VPNs with servers in Romania

Providers with exit locations in Romania: a server here gives you an address in the country. The register’s table records no mandate for VPN operators here; the briefing below sets out what the law asks of providers.

Which companies are registered in Romania is a different question, with a page of its own.

35 providersOrdered by securityUpdated 21 October 20264 companies registered here

The HushFleet teamRegister of 21 October 2026

Providers with exit locations in a country — a fact about a network, kept deliberately apart from where the company is registered. Only providers whose country list has a source appear: a provider that publishes nothing simply does not show up, which is a criterion already in the data rather than an editorial one.

Romania has rewritten its retention rules twice after the Constitutional Court annulled them, in 2009 and 2014. The law now in force caps the storage of traffic data at three years, and an authority needs a judge’s prior authorisation to obtain it.

The Constitutional Court annulled Law 298/2008 by decision 1258 of 2009. It annulled the replacement, Law 82/2012, by decision 440 of 8 July 2014, objecting among other things that authorities could reach retained data without a court’s approval.

What the law requires of a provider standing here

Law 235/2015, amending Law 506/2004 (Official Gazette no. 767, 14 October 2015), requires traffic data to be erased or anonymised once a communication no longer needs it, and within three years at most: a ceiling, not a retention period. Courts, prosecutors and national-security bodies need a judge’s prior authorisation; providers supply the data within 48 hours. Data an authority asks to keep is exempt from erasure for at most five years.

The duties fall on providers of public networks and publicly available services. Whether a company selling a VPN or renting servers is one of them is not established. Emergency Ordinance 155/2024 on cybersecurity, confirmed by Law 124/2025 according to a regulatory tracker, names the national cybersecurity directorate (DNSC) as competent authority; whether it reaches a VPN operator is likewise not established.

What is restricted

The National Gambling Office (ONJN) keeps a blacklist of unlicensed gambling sites, and according to the office internet providers must implement it. A press report of 31 July 2026 says its supervisory committee added about 800 sites.

Whether posting can be prosecuted

Article 369 of the Criminal Code punishes incitement, by any means, to hatred or discrimination against a category of persons with six months to three years’ imprisonment or a fine.

An account behind a post is identified through the traffic data that Law 235/2015 makes available on a judge’s authorisation.

What it means for the rows below

The Constitutional Court has twice annulled retention laws, and the 2015 law added the court approval it had found missing. A challenge to the whole of Law 235/2015 was rejected by the Court as inadmissible, without examining the merits. The order of the rows is the security score, and a server’s location is not a recommendation.

Romania

Ranked by security

Only a provider that publishes a country list appears here at all — 41 of the 77 on file. The other 27 are not missing research: they publish no list, and U02_server_countries is unknown for them rather than filled from the number their marketing claims.

A provider that says “100+ countries” and enumerates none gets no page on any of them, and the count printed on its own record is the length of the list, never the claim. With 41 providers behind 180 countries, the long tail of these pages carries one or two rows.
