Summary/Abstract: Addressing the challenges of translating economic texts requires, first, an analysis of the economic system itself, its nature, content, forms, etc. The difference between the economic systems of different countries is a major problem in terms of translation, which involves transferring the economic reality of the source language into the economic reality of the target language. This paper will analyze in the first part some examples of terms and concepts considered untranslatable, and in the second part it will discuss some formal and structural elements specific for the economy of the European Union.
