Romanian law provides that, under certain legally prescribed conditions, the possessor of a real estate property may acquire ownership through acquisitive prescription (adverse possession). In Romania, acquisitive prescription may take place under several legal acts, and the decisive factor is the law in force at the time when possession began.
