A further focus of our practice is the analysis, from a fiscal point of view, as well as the structuring and implementation of various employee stock options plans in Romania.

The firm probably has the largest volume of case files in contentious-administrative area and the largest number of lawyers able to handle tax litigation related matters.

We also set up a solid transfer pricing service line, our consultants being involved in the preparation of more than 300 transfer pricing files throughout their career, assistance for Advance Pricing Agreements and mutual agreement procedures, as well as the preparation of judicial expert reports.

In addition, further to the setting-up of a specialised SAF-T reporting team involving tax specialists, accountants and IT specialists, we are covering the accounting and technology needs for the SAF-T implementation projects in a seamless manner (Romania has introduced the SAF-T reporting starting with January 2022, which is a totally new and complex reporting requirement). 

We are well experienced in assisting various trading companies and contractors, having in-depth understanding of their specific tax matters, such as efficient transactional structures, flows of services with the group and assessment of pricing mechanisms with the related parties, applying VAT exemptions and recovery procedures, etc.
