  12. Routes to Market SOME ISSUES FROM THE BRITISH INVESTORS’ PERSPECTIVE -1 • KEY METHODS OF DOING BUSINESS • New market entrant : form your own company • Acquire existing operation • Joint venture with existing operation • Partnering with local or national Government • Supply services/product from UK • PARTNERING WITH LOCAL OR NATIONAL GOVERNMENT • Your organisation may be present in Romania only for the length of the particular project • A presence of six months or more generally results in your organisation being liable to tax in Romania on the profits from the project • You will therefore need to have either a branch or a limited liability subsidiary in Romania • FORMING A COMPANY: THE BASICS • Limited liability company (SRL) can be owned 100% by a UK shareholder (provided that shareholder does not own 100% of another company) • Minimum share capital EUR 60 (approx) • Formation time generally 3 weeks, but getting documents together might take longer British Embassy Bucharest Trade Development Section

  13. Routes to Market SOME ISSUES FROM THE BRITISH INVESTORS’ PERSPECTIVE -2 • FINANCE TO BE RAISED INSIDE OR OUTSIDE OF ROMANIA? • Unlikely that all financing will be raised inside Romania, and so foreign source finance required • Ability to finance by borrowing will depend on the strength of the borrower • Investor outside of Romania likely to have established links with banks and other potential sources of funding • Recession – particularly outside of Romania – may restrict opportunities for raising capital • LABOUR LAW : THE BASICS • Romanian labour law will apply to your employees, whether or not they are Romanian nationals • Labour law establishes minimum standards that you have to meet • Important that you get advice regarding the form of a labour contract, the minimum terms, the procedures • Dismissal can be sensitive (just like the UK) • PERSONAL TAX ISSUES FOR UK INVESTORS • You become a fiscal resident in Romania if you are here for 183 days or more in any 365 day period • Romanian personal tax rate is a “flat” 16% • You may have to pay health insurance of 6.5% if you become fiscally resident • Generally for 2007 onwards you will also have to pay other Romanian social security charges unless you can prove you pay this in the UK British Embassy Bucharest Trade Development Section

  14. Routes to Market SOME ISSUES FROM THE BRITISH INVESTORS’ PERSPECTIVE -3 • OTHER PERSONAL ISSUES FOR BRITISH INVESTORS • You can come to Romania for up to 90 days on your UK passport without having Romanian ID • If you are here for more than 90 consecutive days, or more than 90 days in a six month period, you have to obtain Romanian ID as a temporary resident • You may also need a work permit if you intend to work here • Procedure now much simplified for EU citizens • BASIC TAX FACTS • Tax on corporate profits 16%. Tax rate lower than UK but system is similar • VAT 24%, with some services zero rated. Note that system is very similar to UK system • Romanian withholding tax at 16% on most payments made by a Romanian company to a foreign person: for services, dividends, interest, royalties, commission. British Embassy Bucharest Trade Development Section

  15. Routes to Market SOME ISSUES FROM THE BRITISH INVESTORS’ PERSPECTIVE -4 • SERVICES AND TECHNOLOGY AGREEMENTS : THE TAX TRAP • For short term contracts (generally less than 6 months), usually no liability to Romanian corporate profits tax, following UK/Romania Tax Treaty • Gross payments by Romanian company to British company generally liable to Romanian tax at 16% unless exempted under Tax Treaty between UK and Romania. • May not be exempted under Tax Treaty, particularly for technical services • Romanian company obliged to withhold 16% at time of payment UNLESS all paperwork in place • NOTE : THIS IS THE SINGLE MOST FREQUENT CAUSE OF TROUBLE FOR UK COMPANIES WHO FAIL TO CONSULT BEFOREHAND! • Watch out for liability to Romanian personal income tax of British personnel in Romania • DIVIDENDS . . . . • Romania taxes profits at 16%, and then taxes dividends paid out of post-tax profits to foreign shareholders at 16%. Potential total tax 32% • Romanian tax on dividend paid to foreign investor may be reduced depending on Tax Treaty between shareholder country and Romania (10% on dividends paid to UK) • No Romanian tax on intra EU dividends from 1 January 2007. Requirement that shares held for 2 years and not less than 10% held • Generally no UK tax on dividends received by corporate shareholder in Romanian company British Embassy Bucharest Trade Development Section

  16. Routes to Market SOME ISSUES FROM THE BRITISH INVESTORS’ PERSPECTIVE -5 • INTEREST ON MONEY BORROWED . . . • Romania taxes interest payment at 16% • May be a reduction under the Tax Treaty (10% for the UK) • EU Directive (no withholding tax) does not apply until 2011 • FOREIGN CURRENCY ISSUES... • All transactions between Romanian entities have to be in Romanian currency • Transactions with foreign companies may be in “hard” currency but settlement of foreign invoices/debt subject to permission/regulation of National Bank of Romania • Foreign exchange movements need to be taken into account when measuring return on investment Courtesy of Mr. Raymond A Breden Director, Taxation Services KPMG Romania Fixed line + 40 741 800 753 Mobile + 40 744 655 833 rbreden@kpmg.com British Embassy Bucharest Trade Development Section
