Overview of road signs in Romania
Road signs in Giurgiu

Road signs in Romania are regulated in Regulation for the implementation of the Emergency Ordinance on traffic on public roads (Romanian: Regulamentul de aplicare a Ordonanţei de urgenţă privind circulaţia pe drumurile publice).

The shape and design of Romanian road signs largely follows that used in other European countries. Romania is a signatory to the 1968 Vienna Convention of Road Signs and Signals and the 1971 European Agreement supplementing it. Romania signed the Vienna Convention on Road Signs and Signals on November 8, 1968 and ratified it on December 9, 1980.
