Our notes

The legal-terms pages (bitdefender.com and bitdefender.ro) still render no entity details to a script, so the contracting entity is not documented. Do not publish the Dutch holding as the parent without a document. Next steps: the free Romanian ONRC search, and any annual report BitDefender Holding B.V. publishes itself (KvK extracts cost money).

Bitdefender: the short answers

Is Bitdefender European?
Not verified. We found no free primary document that settles who controls Bitdefender, so we do not give a verdict.
Who owns Bitdefender?
We could not verify it from a free primary document as of 2026-10-18, so we do not name a controlling owner. Our notes on the page say what we found and what is missing.
Does Bitdefender have an LEI?
We found no LEI for Bitdefender SRL (operating entity, not confirmed in this pass) in GLEIF on 2026-10-18. That is common: most European companies outside finance never need one.
