“We inform you that on December 28, from 00:00 to 23:59, technical work will be carried out to put into operation the new Ro e-Invoice B2B (Business to Business) computer system, which is mandatory from January 1, 2024. therefore, on that date, the services offered by RO e-Invoice through SPV (Virtual Private Space) respectively through API (Automatic Deposit/Inquiries Interface) will not be available,” the Ministry of Finance said.

RENEWAL The Ministry of Finance has removed its message from its website and moved it to the ANAF site.

We remind you that from January 1, 2024, all companies, PFAs and public organizations are obliged to send invoices through the national e-Invoice system in B2B relations, and for this they need a qualified digital certificate.

Prices for a qualified digital certificate vary and range from 30 to 45 euros per year, and for a slightly longer term, 3 years, they reach about 80 euros. Attention: without VAT.

We clarify that this is not the responsibility of the accountants of these companies.

In the first 6 months of 2024, ANAF will not impose sanctions, but it would be good, however, to submit invoices (the change occurred through GEO 115/2023). This is the time when they simply transmit. Sanctions will also apply from July 1.

Another innovation introduced last week through the same GEO is also related to clarifications regarding the submission deadline.

This term is 5 calendar days from the moment the invoice is issued, but no later than 5 calendar days compared to the deadline for issuing an invoice provided by the Fiscal Code, i.e. the 15th of the following month.

Fines will also come after 6 months.

If you do not declare, it is considered a violation and is punishable by a fine of 5,000 lei to 10,000 lei for legal entities classified as high tax payers.

The average ones will receive a fine from 2,500 to 5,000 lei.

Other taxpayers, i.e. lower than average, will receive a fine of 1,000 to 2,500 lei.
