Here are the highlights on this subject:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Partidul Social Democrat (PSD) has announced that it will implement a European minimum wage standard by the end of 2024. <strong>From 2025, the gross minimum wage is set to increase by a 25% increase on the current amount prior to July 2024.<\/strong> The European directive requires the minimum wage to be 50% of the national average gross wage. It is estimated that from 2025, the average gross wage in Romania will reach RON 8,241 per month. Cristian Vasilcoiu from the Ministry of Labour announced that the bill is almost ready, which is expected to provide more stability for entrepreneurs and improve the living conditions of many Romanians.

The system makes it possible to track both domestic and international transports that pass through Romania. It is intended to reduce the risk of tax fraud and increase the efficiency of customs and tax control.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What types of transport are covered by these regulations?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rules cover transports that start and end within the country, as well as any cross-border transaction that starts in Romania and cross-border transactions that end in Romania. In addition, the rules apply to any cross-border transaction passing through Romania, as in this case part of the transport takes place within the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Transport must be declared in the e-Transport system if it meets the following criteria:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vehicles have a total permissible weight of at least 2.5 tonnes;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The vehicles are transporting goods with a total weight of more than 500 kg;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The goods transported have a total value of more than RON 10,000 excluding VAT.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>If the carrier belongs to one of the categories listed in Article 8(1) of OUG No. 41\/2022, such as:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Professional road haulier,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A person transporting on his own account,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Person transporting on behalf of third parties,<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">then obliged to register in the RO e-Transport system and obtain a UIT (Unique Transport Identification Number) code for each transport.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How does this work?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The haulier is obliged to equip his vehicle with GPS devices, which must be active throughout the transport, from the loading to the unloading of the goods. Each transport of goods must be declared in the e-Transport system, where a unique UIT code is generated, identifying the goods being transported. This code must be available at the request of control authorities such as ANAF, Romanian Customs or the police.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which goods are covered by the e-Transport system?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Goods considered to be high fiscal risk cover a wide range of products, including meat, fish, dairy products, vegetables, fruit, alcoholic beverages, tobacco, salt, mineral fuels and a variety of industrial goods. The list also includes clothing, footwear, iron, steel and many other products that can generate significant tax risks.
