Taxation

The Romanian Fiscal Law is a very complex and continuously developing network. Both individual and corporate clients need assistance in order to learn about the fiscal legislation, to understand and apply it. We respond to this permanent need for expert advice by providing the legal possibility to avoid the negative effects that may occur as a result of the legislation misinterpretation, to reduce the fiscal obligations, to avoid the double taxation, as well as to defend the rights infringed by authorities.

Our Taxation practice, offer a full range of tax consulting services both to corporations (Romanian and international) and to individuals (Romanian residents and non-residents). Our professional advise on matters concerning direct taxation (both for companies and individuals), and indirect taxation such as VAT and government duties, and assist clients with their international tax needs, especially multinational corporate groups, and provide tax planning services to corporations and individuals. We also provide clients with on-going tax planning assistance, allowing them to optimize their tax situations.

Our experience covers advisory on starting up, running and expanding client's operations, advising them on all legal, tax and financial aspects. During the last years successive governments have frequently changed the investment climate in Romania by introducing and amending various tax incentives granted to foreign investors in Romania.
