Romania’s Law No. 141, effective August 1, 2025, repealed VAT exemptions for NGOs, setting an October 31, 2025, deadline for filing reimbursement requests. The law significantly increased the standard VAT rate from 19% to 21% and the reduced rate from 5% to 11%, also reclassifying some supplies. NGOs receiving VAT refunds must strictly use the funds for non-profit purposes and must meet qualifying criteria or face repayment obligations. In addition to transitional rules for a 9% VAT rate on specific dwellings until mid-2026, the law also implemented higher dividend tax rates and introduced a new supplementary tax on banks.
