Following consultations with the business community, the Ministry of Finance and ANAF informs all economic operators that the provisions of art. 13^1 letters d)1 and e) of OUG no. 41/2022 regarding the non-transmission of GPS coordinates in the e-Transportation system will apply from January 1, 2025.
The decision follows requests received from economic operators, in order to give them the necessary time to fully implement and test their internal systems in compliance with the requirements of the e-Transportation RO. We want this transition to be as smooth and efficient as possible for all the economic operators involved, so that they can comply with the legal requirements without incurring possible penalties.
We remind you that for monitoring the Transportation ation of goods, the RO e-Transportation system retrieves data from GPS positioning systems, if the goods vehicles are equipped with such systems. For these situations, the necessary technical specifications have been uploaded on the RO e-Transportation page of the MF website.
Otherwise, the vehicles must be equipped with a mobile phone-type device using satellite positioning and data transmission technologies, on which the e-Transportation application, available on Apple Store and Google Play from July 15, 2024, is installed. A GUIDE for using the e-Transportation app is available on the www.anaf.ro portal, in the Taxpayer Assistance/Taxpayer Services/Current Guides and Other Informational Materials section, at the following link.
As a reminder, the road transportation operator has the obligation to ensure the transfer of the positioning data of the transportation vehicle subject to the declaration from the system, throughout the entire Transportation route of the goods subject to monitoring by RO e-Transportation .
The e-Transportation system
The RO e-Transportation System monitors the domestic road transportation of goods with high tax risk and international road transportation of goods, an important component in the digitalization of ANAF, which aims to increase the administrative capacity to combat tax fraud.
The RO e-Transportation ation system, through the mechanisms it manages, will make an important contribution to reducing the VAT GAP, by monitoring the transportation ation of goods with high tax risk, aiming at taxing commercial transactions and increasing the state budget collections.
In order to inform all taxpayers carrying out domestic high-tax risk and international shipments, the Ministry of Finance and the National Agency for Tax Administration have developed the Guide on the National e-Transportation System, which is available here — https://bit.ly/3xTCZbL.
