72 hours to comply or close: Romania's fire safety overhaul and the deadlines you cannot miss
Seventy-two hours. That is now all the time Romanian law gives an operator to fix a failed fire system before the doors must close. Government Emergency Ordinance No. 17/2026 ("GO 17/2026"), in force since 13 March 2026, with its strictest enforcement provisions applying from 12 April, rewrites the fire safety rulebook for commercial, industrial, hospitality and retail premises across the country. Amending Law No. 307/2006 on fire defence, it is Romania's most sweeping fire safety overhaul in a decade and leaves no link in the chain untouched.
