The Ministry of Finance has launched a simplified version of the e-Invoice application. According to the agency, the improved version has an intuitive interface and easier-to-use features.

“We were thinking first and foremost about the approximately 670,000 small taxpayers who need a system and a free, intuitive and easy-to-use app. In addition, the extended application is now also available in English, and the simplified application will also be translated in the next period,” said Finance Minister Marcel Bolosh.

The new program has been redesigned to automatically include manuals (default invoice type code 380, currency code exclusively RON) and has checkboxes to display mandatory identification elements according to VAT payer category.

Narrowed the VAT nomenclature to those frequently used for domestic transactions and included tax percentages in a selectable format.

Business people I spoke to earlier in the year said it would be ideal to have some fields auto-populate. That is, do not enter the same data every time in order to reduce time. At the moment, the Ministry of Finance has not proposed anything similar.
