Activity has stopped for now
A project has ended, the activity is seasonal or you are away for a while: suspension gives you time without closing the company.
Trade Register services
Suspending a companyin Romania
If your Romanian company has no activity for a while, you can suspend it temporarily instead of closing it. The suspension is registered with the Trade Register (ONRC) and can last up to 3 years.
We prepare all the documents and file them with ONRC, so you do not need to go to the Trade Register in person. We also explain from the start which obligations remain while the company is suspended.
When suspensionmakes sense
You want to keep the company
The company keeps its name, tax code and history, and you can resume activity without setting up a new company.
Fewer obligations
While suspended, the company has no operations and therefore fewer returns to file. Some annual obligations remain.
What you should knowabout suspension
- A company's activity can be suspended for up to 3 years.
- While suspended, the company cannot carry out any activity.
- The suspension is communicated to ANAF and the company is considered tax-inactive for that period. If the company is VAT-registered, the VAT registration is cancelled.
- The company still has annual reporting obligations, for example the declaration of inactivity instead of financial statements.
- Local taxes on buildings, land or vehicles owned by the company are still due.
