1. Definition and Legal Framework The Certificatul de integritate comportamentală (CIC) is an official Romanian administrative document that attests to the absence of a criminal record or, in specific cases, the existence of certain criminal convictions that do not impede the holder from practicing a particular profession or holding a specific position. It is a more specialized and nuanced document than the general Cazierul Judiciar (criminal record extract).
The primary legislation governing the CIC is Legea nr. 118/2019 privind sistemul național de caziere judiciare (Law No. 118/2019 on the national judicial record system), as subsequently amended and supplemented.
