SAF-T is an international standard for the exchange of accounting data from taxpayers to tax authorities. With Romania SAF-T, authorities have direct electronic access to companies’ VAT returns and invoices. You can check in real-time if there are any problems.
ANAF (National Financial Management Agency) completed the development of the SAF-T system in 2021 and put it into effect. SAF-T has become mandatory for major taxpayers in Romania from 2022. The deadline is the last calendar day of the month following the relevant tax period.
SAF-T Reporting and Obligations
The D406 declaration must be sent to the Romanian Tax Administration on a monthly or quarterly basis in terms of the companies’ bookkeeping method. However, for taxpayers without VAT registration, Romanian authorities have decreed that SAF-T files should be sent quarterly.
SAF-T reporting, which became mandatory in 2022 for medium taxpayers, will become mandatory in 2023 for small taxpayers.
Romanian legal entities and foreign legal entities that do not have a legal presence in Romania and are required to keep double-entry books must submit the standard SAF-T financial control file to the Romanian Tax Administration via Declaration D406.
