    The CAEN code question: how Romania's activity classifier shapes your tax regime

    CAEN — Romania's activity-classification scheme — looks like an administrative formality. It is not. The principal CAEN code determines microenterprise eligibility, sectoral licensing, default VAT regime, and which ANAF inspector handles your file. Pick wrong, and recovery costs months.

    Romania's 10% personal income tax and 8% dividend tax: what owner-managers actually pay

    The microenterprise CIT is famous; Romania's personal-tax side is less so. The 10% flat PIT, 8% dividend tax, and the social-contribution stack determine what an owner-manager actually keeps. The headline rates are competitive — the contribution rules tighten the picture.

    What "100% remote formation" actually means in Romania (and where it doesn't)

    Romanian SRL formation is genuinely remote in 2026 — the Trade Register accepts e-signed dossiers from any jurisdiction. But "100% remote" obscures the three points where physical presence still matters: bank onboarding, occasional ANAF in-person checks, and apostille logistics for non-Hague countries.

    Romanian Schengen accession in 2025: what changed for non-EU founders

    Romania became a full Schengen member on 1 January 2025, ending decades of staggered accession. For founders from the UAE, US, Israel, and other non-EU jurisdictions, the calculus around a Romanian residence permit has shifted materially. The mechanics, opportunities, and traps.

    Exit taxation from Germany to Romania: the sequenced playbook

    A relocation from Germany to Romania does not begin at the SRL formation. It begins with the German exit-tax sequence under §6 AStG, which determines whether the move is recognised, deferred, or treated as a deemed disposal. The sequencing is unforgiving.

    EUR bank accounts in Romania for non-resident founders

    Opening a EUR account at a Romanian bank as a non-resident is the single biggest friction point in entering the Romanian market. The dossier matters more than the conversation, the bank matters more than the dossier, and the activity code matters more than either.

    1% microenterprise tax: who qualifies, when it stops, what comes next

    The Romanian microenterprise regime, codified in Title III of Law 227/2015, taxes qualifying SRLs at 1% on turnover. The rules on qualification, the €100,000 threshold, the employee requirement, and what happens at exit are misread frequently — usually by advisors who do not work in the Romanian Fiscal Code.
