Abstract
The legal regulation of lobbying in Europe is described by the authors through the prism of the European Union, but also of international organizations operating in the territory of Europe and certain countries on its territory. The existence, i.e. nonexistence, of the relevant regulations, of the transparency register and of the code of ethics in the Member States of the European Union, are presented, with special emphasis on those Member States in which there is a legal regulation concerning lobbying and the advantages and disadvantages of such legal acts.
