With a notarised Power of Attorney (PoA), your accountant can represent your business at the Romanian Tax Agency (ANAF) and upload your tax statements to the ANAF platform, Spatiul Privat Virtual (SPV).
You have two options to obtain this document:Â
If you visit Romania, the simplest option is to go to a Romanian notary. Many accounting firms can suggest a nearby notary. Make sure to book an appointment in advance and request an interpreter if needed.
If You Are Not Visiting Romania:Â Use a notary in your country. The PoA can be in your language or bilingual, with an authorised translation. Make sure the translation is apostilled, as ANAF requires this.
Don’t miss deadlines
Timely submission of your tax forms is important to avoid penalties, which can affect your company’s tax profile. Being late with filing tax forms is a contravention. Therefore, make sure you offer this PoA to your accountant as early as possible.
