Romania's internet penetration has increased to 78% in 2026, but disparities remain between urban (92%) and rural (58%) regions. The digital divide persists, affecting access to online services and digital literacy. Efforts to expand infrastructure and digital education are crucial for inclusive growth across the country.
Average broadband speeds have improved to 150 Mbps, supporting remote work and digital innovation.
