What the law says

• Romanian Civil Code art. 1321 — contracts may end via termination, rescission, or unilateral denunciation.
• EU Regulation eIDAS 910/2014 — advanced electronic signatures carry the same legal weight as handwritten signatures.
• Civil Code art. 1552 — unilateral termination is valid only if contractually agreed or permitted by law.
• GEO 38/2020 — contracts concluded by electronic means are legally recognized in Romania.
• GDPR art. 17 — after contract cancellation, personal data erasure may be requested.

Practical examples

• IT services contract terminated after 30-day notice period, notification sent by email with electronic signature.
• SaaS subscription cancelled within the 14-day withdrawal period (B2C consumer right under Directive 2011/83/EU).
• Freelancer collaboration contract terminated by mutual agreement, cessation document signed digitally on the platform.
• Coworking space rental ended early, with proof of notification stored in the 4mycontracts.net archive.

Common mistakes

• Sending the termination notice verbally or via informal message, without a written document and valid signature.
• Ignoring the notice period stated in the contract, which can trigger penalties or contractual damages.
• Missing proof of receipt for the termination notice — without it, the cancellation can be legally challenged.
• Revoking platform access before the termination procedure and document archiving are fully completed.
