- The Official Gazette published AVR Order no. 2618/2025 establishing rules for a special VAT mechanism on imports, including authorization procedures and declaration models
- Authorization applies exclusively to imports of consignments valued up to EUR 150 where transport ends in Romania, granted by competent customs offices for goods entering free circulation
- Applicants must meet multiple conditions including declaring intention to use the mechanism, being postal operators or authorized customs brokers, having VAT registration, no outstanding debts, and not being in insolvency procedures
- A financial guarantee is required covering the maximum deferred VAT amount, calculated using customs value, VAT rate, and 30-day period, established through State Treasury deposit or bank guarantee letter
- The mechanism aims to simplify VAT collection for low-value imports while maintaining proper fiscal and customs control through verification processes and authorization requirements
