Abstract: In the context of improving the protection, conservation and increase of the quality of the environment, as well as of the health and safety of the population, but also for fulfilling the commitments regarding the environmental protection assumed, starting with the year 2000 in Romania the packaging fee was regulated. This is intended to hold producers of packaging waste accountable for reducing the quantities generated and increasing recycling or other types of recovery, such as energy generation from waste. Over the years this fee has undergone numerous changes, the last one being the one of 2019, aiming at increasing the effectiveness of the instrument and eliminating the erroneous interpretation of the legal provisions. The present research aims to analyze the effects determined by these legislative changes and to observe whether or not they have determined an improvement of the quality of the environment.
