The Ministry of Finance proposes, for 2026, a structured package of measures agreed in the governing coalition, which creates a more stable and less bureaucratic fiscal framework, supports the vulnerable and stimulates investments, without placing additional pressure on the budget, claims the relevant minister, Alexandru Nazare, in a post on his Facebook page.
The Ministry of Finance published on Monday evening the draft Ordinance with fiscal-budgetary and economic recovery measures for next year, which provides, among other things, a 0.5% cut in the minimum turnover tax (IMCA), a single tax of 1% for micro-enterprises and the extension of support schemes for vulnerable energy consumers.
In this context, Alexandru Nazare wrote that reducing the IMCA to 0.5% in 2026 and eliminating the tax in 2027 means lower costs for companies and more capital available for investments.
The Minister of Finance also announced the elimination of the "pillar tax" in 2027, "a tax that discourages investments in infrastructure, energy and industry and blocks long-term development".
The RO e-Factura and RO e-TVA systems will also be simplified, with fewer reports for correct taxpayers and better targeted tax controls, Agerpres informs.
As for the income of individuals, for the minimum wage, the non-taxable amount remains 300 lei until June 30 and decreases to 200 lei between July and December 2026.
At the same time, the "Healthy Meal" programme will continue, by ensuring hot and balanced meals for students in pre-university education, especially from vulnerable communities.
Nazare also announced better financing for social services, by updating the daily food allowance in social assistance institutions, for quality services and realistic budgets.
The draft ordinance also provides for the reduction of political and parliamentary expenses, by limiting subsidies and lump sums, stricter rules for state-owned companies, for expenditure control and transparency, and firm measures against tax evasion, with an emphasis on combating shell companies and protecting fair competition.
"We are building a simpler, fairer and more predictable fiscal framework that protects people, supports the economy and keeps public finances under control," said Alexandru Nazare.
According to the Substantiation Note of the draft normative act, which is to be adopted by the Government on Tuesday, the measures will have a financial impact on the general consolidated budget of minus 508.7 million lei in 2026.
