President Nicușor Dan requested the Parliament to re-examine the Law on consular services, which introduces fees for foreign citizens, while maintaining free services for Romanians. The law allows diplomatic missions to perform notarial acts for both Romanian and foreign citizens, but the president emphasizes that it could create a distinct legal regime, generating uncertainty. He calls for clarification of the term "foreign citizens" to avoid discrimination between EU citizens and those from third countries, in accordance with European norms. Dan also highlights the risks of divergent interpretation and legislative parallelism in the use of fees for the repatriation of deceased Romanian citizens abroad.
