Summary/Abstract: This study aims at presenting the development of the Romanian legislation in the field of gambling, particularly related to the manner in which the applicable legislation cross-references the European Standards elaborated over time. We will start by examining the aspect of the multidisciplinary approach of both the general domain and of the criminality related to gambling, by exposing briefly, and only regarding the essential aspects, the development of the Romanian legislation in this field and its compatibility with the principles of the European Union. Within this analysis, the main regulatory directions at the European Union level will also be laid down, (as currently there are no specific regulations in this domain, but only recommending acts and the principles elaborated by the case law). The gambling institution is a rather delicate subject in the context of the internal market of the European Union, also known as the Single Market (governed by the two fundamental principles, the freedom of establishment and the freedom to provide services), as this is a domain in which it is difficult to intervene by means of European mechanisms, under certain restrictions related to the legislative policies chosen by various member states, essentially regarding a vice, policies intended to fight against addiction and squandering.
