Why French founders choose a Romanian SRL
EU single market
France and Romania are both in the EU. A Romanian SRL trades inside the single market with no internal customs barriers — invoice clients across the EU and hold an EU VAT number.
Competitive taxation (2026)
Micro-company 1% on turnover where eligible (cap €100,000, at least one employee), otherwise 16% profit tax and 16% on dividends. Often more competitive than a domestic setup — confirm your own case.
Low setup cost
A flat €990 for the formation, with low minimum share capital and lean ongoing requirements — a cost-efficient alternative to a heavier domestic incorporation.
Familiar limited-liability form
The SRL is the limited-liability company you'd expect when comparing with a SAS or SARL — limited liability for owners, straightforward governance, fast registration.
English-speaking remote service
We run the whole process in English from start to finish, coordinating with partner lawyers and accountants in Romania — no Romanian language skills needed.
Good for IT, e-commerce & consulting
Location-independent businesses — software, online stores, consulting — fit the micro-company regime well and operate easily across the EU from a Romanian base.
How it works from France
1. Power of attorney
A PoA lets us file everything from France without you travelling. Signed digitally or notarised/legalised locally.
2. NIF tax ID
Non-residents get a Romanian tax identification number (NIF) — we obtain it for you, no Romanian CNP needed.
3. Apostille & translation
France is a Hague Apostille country and issues an apostille where one is needed; foreign documents may need sworn translation — we coordinate it, at cost.
4. Registered office
Your SRL needs a Romanian registered address — included for the first year.
5. ONRC → CUI
We file at the Trade Register and follow it through to your registration certificate and unique tax ID (CUI).
6. VAT & bank account
VAT registration plus guidance to open a business bank account that accepts non-resident-owned companies.

From France — FAQ
Do I need to travel to Romania to open the company?
No. From France we incorporate remotely using a power of attorney. Documents are signed digitally or notarised/legalised locally — France is a Hague Apostille country, so an apostille is issued where one is required (please confirm current requirements with us).
How is a Romanian SRL different from a French SAS or SARL?
A Romanian SRL is the equivalent limited-liability company inside the EU single market. Romania (2026) offers micro-company taxation of 1% where eligible, otherwise 16% profit tax and 16% dividend tax — often more competitive than a domestic setup. We do not give French tax or legal figures; compare with your own advisor.
What taxes will my Romanian company pay?
For 2026: micro-company regime 1% on turnover (cap €100,000, at least one employee), or standard 16% profit tax; 16% on dividends; VAT at 21% standard / 11% reduced, with a registration threshold of RON 395,000. Always confirm the figures that apply to your case.
Can a French resident own 100% of the company?
Yes. Foreign individuals and companies — including French residents and citizens — can own and direct 100% of a Romanian SRL. No Romanian residency is required, and both France and Romania are inside the EU single market.
