Resident directors, local agents and authorized representatives
Several regimes require a local person who answers to the regulator. We provide that role, run the correspondence and deadlines, and keep your board informed, so you can hold the license without relocating your team.
The local role, handled properly
Authorized representative in Romania
Mandatory when an EU, EEA or Swiss company holds a Class II license directly. We register the representative with ONJN and obtain your Romanian tax identification number (CIF) from ANAF.
Directors for Romanian companies
Directors for Romanian SRLs holding Class I or Class II licenses, directly accountable to ONJN.
Resident director or local agent
Where an offshore jurisdiction such as Curaçao requires a local person to manage the company’s affairs.
Regulator liaison
Receiving and answering regulator correspondence, and escalating anything that needs your decision.
Filings and deadlines
Monthly reports, change notifications and annual documents filed on time.
Registered office and records
A local registered address, board minutes and corporate registers kept in order.

Frequently asked questions
Can we keep our own board?
Yes. Under the EU entity route for Romania Class II, your existing EU board stays in place and we act as the local authorized representative.
Which route is better for Romania: representative or Romanian SRL?
An EU, EEA or Swiss company with a representative usually reaches submission faster and avoids Romanian corporate tax if no permanent establishment is created. A Romanian SRL suits long-term local presence. We compare both in your roadmap.
Do you provide nominee shareholders?
We do not recommend nominee structures for licensed entities. Regulators look through to beneficial owners, and in Romania nominee directors and bearer shares trigger additional scrutiny.
A local presence the regulator can rely on.
