Titus Corlățean (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈtitus korləˈt͡se̯an]; born January 11, 1968) is a Romanian politician and diplomat, former Minister of Justice and of Foreign Affairs. He is a member of the Social Democratic Party (PSD), part of the Party of European Socialists, and was elected to the Chamber of Deputies for Brașov County in the 2004 elections. He became an appointed Member of the European Parliament on January 1, 2007, with the accession of Romania to the European Union. He was elected to that body late in the same year, resigning in 2008 after being returned to the Chamber. In 2012, he was elected Senator for Bucharest.
Corlățean was born in Medgidia, and graduated from the University of Bucharest's Faculty of Law in 1994. He also earned a certificate from the International Institute of the École nationale d'administration in Paris (1995).
Between 1994 and 2001, Corlățean worked as a diplomat in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, before joining Prime Minister Adrian Năstase's Chancellery in 2001-2003 (first as Adviser on Foreign Policy Issues, and, after 2003, as Secretary of State for the Romanian Diaspora). He has been a member of the PSD since 2002, serving as spokesperson for its Coordinating Committee after 2004.
