IMPORTANT: "According to Article 334, paragraph 4 of the Romanian Penal Code, driving a motor vehicle or towing a trailer on public roads whose registration plates have been withdrawn, or a vehicle registered in another country that is not authorized to circulate in Romania, is punishable by imprisonment of 6 months to 2 years or a fine. The Romanian authorities consider that the movement within the country of motor vehicles with yellow German registration plates falls within this category and classify such cases as a criminal offense, with all the negative consequences that this entails.
