The Cabinet approved the amendments at its last meeting on December 30, 2024, IPN reports.
A number of normative fiscal and customs documents were amended and supplemented in order to align them with the updated provisions of the Fiscal Code and the Customs Code.

The amendments refer to a series of adjustments aimed at streamlining and modernizing tax and customs processes.

It was also proposed to extend the range of deductible expenses for individuals and to exempt from taxes for income obtained from interest or capital increases from state securities, as well as to set a clear ceiling for surplus funds that cannot be justified by tax documents, with a maximum amount of 150 lei.
The amendments also concern the regulation of the placing of foods with a limited shelf life and medicines under customs warehousing “in order to ensure consumer protection and legal compliance”.
