Abstract: In order to observe the structural changes of the export specialization processes in Romanian regions, compared to the European Union (EU-27) during the 2000-2011, I used the regional and EU data pertaining to exports organized on sections of the Combined Nomenclature. The analysis involved, during the first part, studying the convergence potential and the stability in time of the comparative advantages of the export specialization processes, and for that purpose I built regression equations in which I used the Dalum indices of specialization from 2000 and 2011, while in the second part, in order to observe the structural changes of the regional distribution of comparative advantages I used the probabilistic analysis. The results of the analysis show the fact that in most Romanian regions, even if the export specialization processes have remained the same on average, there were, however, modifications in their structure and a convergence process of the export specialization compared to the EU-27, especially during the last years.
