Following the decision, Posta Romana will have to provide universal postal services throughout the country, including remote villages and areas with low population density, the regulator said in a statement.
Universal postal service fees must be affordable, transparent, non-discriminatory and cost-driven, with a view to securing access to universal postal services and developing the public postal network.
According to ANCOM, Posta Romana operates a network of 5,600 postal units, or about 60% of entire postal offices in Romania, and covers the whole country.
