„This amount is ANAF’s biggest annual collection since its establishment, in 2003, to date. By comparison, in 2017, ANAF collected RON15.5 billion (7.8%) more than in 2016”, the tax regulator said in a statement.
According to ANAF, the revenue collection plan was feasible „by implementing measures aimed at improving the voluntary conformation which led to an annual progressive and sustained growth in the revenue collection rate and to a balance of revenue to the general consolidated budget”.
The amounts declared to the general consolidated budget reached RON217.1 billion in 2017, up 7.55% versus 2016.
ANAF’s value-added tax (VAT) collection reached RON68.08 billion in 2017, compared with RON66.64 billion in 2016. Subsequent to compensations and refunds, a total RON53.54 billion from VAT collection was poured into the state budget, up 3.6% from RON51.67 billion in 2016.
