Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the questions we hear most from international founders.
The full incorporation process — from signing documents to receiving the Trade Register certificate — typically takes 1 to 2 weeks. The timeline depends on the complexity of the structure, whether a registered office needs to be arranged, and the responsiveness of the Trade Register office. The entire process can be completed 100% remotely via power of attorney.
Yes. We handle the entire incorporation remotely using a notarized power of attorney. You sign the documents at a local notary or Romanian embassy/consulate in your country, and we take care of everything in Bucharest — Trade Register filing, tax registration, and bank account opening.
The minimum share capital is RON 500 (approximately €100). However, if your SRL's turnover exceeds RON 400,000, you must increase the share capital to RON 5,000 under the new 2026 requirements. We assist with both initial setup and subsequent capital increases.
Romanian micro-enterprises (turnover ≤ €100,000) pay a 1% revenue tax. Above that threshold, the standard corporate income tax is 16% on profit. Dividend withholding tax is 16% (effective 1 January 2026). VAT registration is mandatory above €100,000 turnover, with a standard rate of 21% (reduced rate 11% for certain goods).
Yes. Starting 1 January 2026, all Romanian companies must hold a payment account with a bank or payment institution. New companies have 60 days from incorporation to open one. Failure to comply can trigger fiscal inactivity. We assist with bank account opening as part of our incorporation packages.
We offer three fixed-fee packages: Essentials (€500) — company registration and tax setup; Standard (€900) — adds registered office address for 1 year; Premium (€1,400) — adds bank account opening and initial advisory session. All fees are fixed and quoted upfront with no hidden costs. View full pricing →
Business Law Firm in Bucharest for International Entrepreneurs
Mihai Attorneys is a Bucharest-based corporate law firm that advises foreign entrepreneurs, investors, and companies operating in Romania. We provide end-to-end legal services in English — from company incorporation and tax registration to ongoing corporate secretarial services, employment law, real estate transactions, and dispute resolution.
Romania's micro-enterprise regime makes it one of the most tax-efficient jurisdictions in the European Union: companies with annual turnover below €100,000 pay just 1% revenue tax, with minimum share capital of only RON 500 (~€100). As of 2026, dividend withholding tax stands at 16%, VAT at 21% (reduced 11%), and the minimum gross salary is RON 4,050/month (January–June) rising to RON 4,325/month (July–December).
We serve clients from over 30 countries across technology, e-commerce, real estate, manufacturing, financial services, and professional consulting. Our fixed-fee model — with incorporation packages starting at €500 — ensures full cost transparency. Unlike large advisory firms, we provide direct access to senior lawyers throughout every engagement.
In addition to legal services, we publish 13 free business tools — including salary calculators, tax comparison tools, due diligence screeners, and a compliance calendar — designed to help international founders navigate Romanian regulations before, during, and after incorporation.
