As a result, inspectors imposed tax penalties totalling 1.540 million lei and administrative penalties totalling 489,900 lei. The total amounts to over 2 million lei.

These figures were provided by the National Tax Service’s press office, which reports that the agency will continue its monitoring in October. Experts note that companies are selected based on a risk analysis of non-compliance with tax obligations. Particular attention is paid to high-risk sectors and seasonal activities.

Inspectors are checking whether businesses issue cash register receipts for cash transactions, whether they declare their income correctly and in full, and whether they have documentation regarding the origin of goods.

The August inspections did not, on the whole, alter the ‘anti-rating’ of high-risk activities. As before, the highest number of penalties were imposed on businesses engaged in retail trade (out of 271 inspections, 224 revealed breaches). This was followed by road haulage: 72 out of 189. Online retail also featured prominently, with non-compliance identified in 29 out of 64 cases.

In October, the agency will add the trade in tobacco products and precious metals to this list.
