The Romanian government is planning to cut dividend tax from 2016. At present dividend payments are taxed at 16%. This rate will be reduced to five percent from January 1, 2016, rather than from January 1, 2017 as previously planned.
The Government is also seeking to accelerate other Tax Code measures, including expansion of the number of micro-enterprises that can benefit from the present concessionary tax regime.
