Editing SIM lock (section)

=== Romania ===
[[Romania]]n telecom regulator ANCOM signed a code of conduct with several Romanian carriers providing that as of September 1, 2009 mobile operators selling handsets locked within their own network have to inform clients whether the handset is locked and provide unlocking upon request. It is "self-regulation" by the carriers to prevent the regulator from actually imposing regulations on them.  If the handset is not purchased together with other electronic communications services, the mobile telephony operator that sells it will bear the unlocking costs and will not bind the terminal unlocking by the purchase of other services or by the payment of other fees.{{Citation needed|date=August 2023}}

If the handset is purchased as part of a promotional package or at a preferential price and the customer requires the unlocking before the expiry of the minimum period provided in the contract for communications services concluded with the operator, the customer will have to pay both the unlocking fee and the penalty for the anticipated unlocking of the handset. The price charged to unlock handsets will not exceed the costs of this operation and operators are obliged to meet unlocking requests within 15 days.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ancom.org.ro/_3719 |title=Operatorii de telefonie mobila vor debloca, la cerere, telefoanele codate in reteaua proprie |date=29 September 2009 |publisher=Ancom |language=ro |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160105041720/http://www.ancom.org.ro/_3719 |archive-date=2016-01-05 }}</ref>
