?? RO e-Transport Monitoring????

??The international road transport of goods has been included in the scope of obligations under the RO e-Transport through Emergency Ordinance no. 115/2023. This extension of obligations covers both customs operations for import-export and intracommunity movements (acquisitions and intracommunity deliveries).????

Thus, economic operators must comply, on the one hand, with the existing e-Transport obligations regarding the transport of goods within the national territory with high fiscal risk, and on the other hand, with the new obligations concerning international road transport of goods.

The obligations in the field of RO e-Transport initially aimed to monitor road transport within the national territory of goods with high fiscal risk as provided by Order ANAF no. 802/2022. ANAF aims - through a draft Order - to extend this list of goods with high fiscal risk.

Moreover, the obligation to obtain the UIT code also applies to international road transport of goods and concerns the following economic operators:

• the consignee listed in the customs declaration for import, or the sender listed in the customs declaration for export, in the case of goods subject to import or export operations, as applicable;
• the beneficiary in Romania, in the case of intracommunity acquisitions of goods;
• the supplier in Romania, in the case of intracommunity deliveries of goods;
• the warehouse keeper, in the case of goods subject to intracommunity transactions in transit, both for goods unloaded in Romania for storage or for the formation of a new transport from one or more batches of goods, and for goods loaded after storage or after the formation of a new transport within the national territory from one or more batches of goods.

Lastly, another important change brought by Emergency Ordinance no. 115/2023 concerns the obligation of transporters to equip the transport vehicle with telecommunications terminal devices. In this regard, the driver of the transport vehicle is required to activate the positioning device before starting the transport within the national territory and to keep it operational until the declared place of delivery within the national territory or after leaving the national territory.????

??Non-compliance with the new obligations regarding RO e-Transport for international road transport of goods attracts fines of up to 100,000 lei, as well as the confiscation of the value of undeclared goods. Sanctions for non-compliance with the new obligations regarding international road transport of goods will apply from July 1, 2024.??
