    Registered Office (Sediu Social) for Romanian Companies

    Every Romanian company needs a sediu social — a registered address with valid title (ownership, lease or comodat) approved by ANAF. We provide attorney-managed registered offices with mail handling, ANAF address validity certificates and full inspection support.

    What the law actually requires

    • Companies Act art. 17: every legal entity must have a registered office in Romania with a valid legal title
    • ANAF Order 2594/2008 and subsequent amendments: address must be confirmed compatible with the declared activity (CAEN code)
    • Maximum number of companies registered at the same address is capped — over-density triggers ANAF refusal
    • Owner's notarised consent or a lease/comodat agreement registered with ANAF (form 168) is mandatory

    What we provide

    • Attorney-attested registered-office address in Târgu Mureș
    • Multi-year comodat or commercial lease agreement filed with ANAF
    • Form 168 submission and address-validity certificate
    • Mail handling, scanning and forwarding (Romanian and English)
    • On-site reception for ANAF, ITM and ONRC inspectors
    • Optional working/meeting rooms for board meetings or AGAs

    What a registered office is NOT

    It is not a permanent establishment for tax purposes. Holding only a sediu social does not, on its own, create a PE if no substantive business activity is carried on there.

    It is not a substitute for a real working office if you have employees on Romanian payroll. ITM inspections expect a workspace consistent with declared headcount.
