The package of measures to relaunch Romania's economy has entered a straight line, their main objective being the pivot from an economy based on consumption to one based on investments and added value, Finance Minister Alexandru Nazare announced on his Facebook page.
"We are on track with the package of measures to relaunch Romania's economy. After yesterday we published the normative act on decision-making transparency, we are continuing the series of consultations to ensure the alignment of our strategic vision with the reality of the business environment. Yesterday we had an applied discussion with representatives of the CNIPMMR (National Council of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises), and today we participated in the meeting of the National Tripartite Council. We took over useful proposals and observations and, together with unions and employers' associations, we analyzed how we transform this package into a growth engine for the coming period. The main objective of these measures is the pivot from an economy based on consumption to one based on investments and added value. SMEs represent the backbone of the Romanian economy, and this set of measures is designed to offer them not only stability, but also agility," wrote Alexandru Nazare.
He mentioned that the new support measures for entrepreneurs and SMEs include simplifying rules for micro-enterprises, unblocking access to capital through state guarantees and subsidized interest for investments of up to 50 million RON.
"We extend the employment term to 90 days and allow the occasional sale of assets, without them losing their favorable tax regime. The state must be a facilitator, not an obstacle," explained Alexandru Nazare.
One of the measures aims to increase the ceiling for VAT upon collection, from 4.5 million RON to 5 million RON in 2026 and 5.5 million RON in 2027. According to the minister, it is a vital liquidity measure, which allows companies to pay taxes only after they actually collect invoices, protecting their cash flow.
Also, a 3% bonus will be granted this year for entrepreneurs who pay their taxes on time.
"Through this mix of tax credits, grants and administrative simplification, we aim for the state to truly become a partner that shares the risk with the private sector. Not just to assist the economy, but to actively invest in the capacity of Romanian companies to produce, export and innovate. We continue the dialogue with the business environment in the coming period. 2026 must be the year in which Romanian capital gains more trust and stability - through investments, predictability and real partnership with the state. The entire package of measures for the relaunch is available for consultation on the website of the Ministry of Finance, in the Transparency section," Alexandru Nazare also wrote.
