February 22, 2022

The taxation of multinationals by at least 15 pct goes into a straight line, and Romania will have to adapt its legislation to include these new taxation rules, covering also specific situations, according to an analysis made by Miruna Enache, EY Romania & Moldova Tax Partner, EY CESA Tax Markets Leader."Multinationals must be prepared: Romania, through the voice of its Minister of Finance, Adrian Caciu, begins preparations for the implementation, as of January 1, 2023, of the Directive on the minimum level of taxation.

The preparation of clear rules for the practical enforcement of the new rules is extremely important (as the implementing rules for all the European legislation implemented in our country have proved to be extremely useful).
