How tax works in Romania

Europe · RON

Romania has one of the simplest tax codes in Europe: a 10% flat income tax with no personal allowance, but heavy employee social contributions of 25% pension (CAS) and 10% health (CASS). IT-sector workers historically benefit from income-tax exemptions on the first portion of pay.
