This includes rape, actual bodily harm, human trafficking and controlling prostitution for gain against three women.
His brother Tristan, 36, is charged with 11 offences against one alleged victim – including rape, actual bodily harm and human trafficking.
A European arrest warrant was issued to extradite the pair back to the UK for criminal proceedings in 2024.
But today is the first time the Crown Prosecution Service confirmed they have authorised charges against the pair.
The brothers are facing a string of alleged sex crimes in Romania, which prosecutors must be settled first.
Lawyer Matt Jury, representing the alleged victims, said: “We welcome the clarity from the Crown Prosecution Service that our authorities are working to ensure the Tates face justice here in the UK – they cannot be allowed to escape extradition.”
Tate is also being sued by four other women, after the CPS decided not to prosecute
