Summary/Abstract: In this paper we have examined some pre-existing conditions for the offense of false testimony, respectively, of the active subjects of this offence. We also presented some considerations regarding the elements of differentiation and similarity between the current and existing regulations in the Criminal Code of 1969. The examination also considered the formulation of critical opinions, supplemented by de lege ferenda proposals meant to contribute to the improvement of the text in force. The paper can be useful to students and masters of law faculties in the country, as well as to practitioners in the field of criminal law.
