The Romanian Constitution reserves a seat in the Chamber of Deputies for the party and cultural association of each ethnic minority in Romania (with the limitation that each national minority is to be represented by one organization only). At the 2004 legislative elections, the following parties and associations were granted a seat in the Chamber of Deputies.
- Association of Italians of Romania (Asociaţia Italienilor din România)
- Bulgarian Union of the Banat - Romania (Uniunea Bulgară din Banat - România)
- Cultural Union of Rusyns of Romania (Uniunea Culturală a Rutenilor din România)
- Democratic Forum of Germans in Romania (Forumul Democrat al Germanilor din România)
- Democratic Union of Slovaks and Czechs in Romania (Uniunea Democratică a Slovacilor şi Cehilor din România)
- Democratic Union of Turco-Islamic Tatars of Romania (Uniunea Democrată a Tătarilor Turco-Musulmani din România)
- Federation of Jewish Communities of Romania (Federaţia Comunităţilor Evreieşti din România)
- Greek Union of Romania (Uniunea Elenă din România)
- League of Albanians of Romania (Liga Albanezilor din România)
- Lipovan Russian Community of Romania (Comunitatea Ruşilor Lipoveni din România)
- Social Democratic Roma Party of Romania (Partida Romilor Social Democrată din România)

In addition to these, the ethnically-based Democratic Union of Hungarians in Romania (Hungarian: Romániai Magyar Demokrata Szövetség, RMDSZ; Romanian: Uniunea Democrată Maghiară din România, UDMR) has played a significant role in the country's politics, contesting elections in essentially the same manner as non-ethnic parties.
