As of the second half of Q1 2023, legal entities, associations, and other entities without legal personality, as well as individuals who carry out a liberal profession or exercise an economic activity independently, must submit their requests through the Contact Form within the Virtual Private Space service.

Individuals can only use the Contact Form in the public space if they fill in the tax identification code field with a valid CNP/NIF. If other information is entered, the taxpayer/payer will be directed to use the Contact Form within the Virtual Private Space service.
Taxpayers are prohibited from using other e-mail addresses of the tax administration and must use the Contact Form. Any requests submitted through other electronic channels will not be taken into account, which can delay the resolution of the issue.
Applications, inscriptions, or other documents that are not yet digitized or available in electronic format must be submitted through the Contact Form from the SPV account, selecting the category "Specialized assistance and guidance in the field of taxation." Digitized forms are available on the ANAF website, and must be transmitted as indicated on the portal, either through the e-government portal, SPV, or by accessing the button on the main page of the ANAF website.
Any technical issues encountered during the submission process can be reported through the "Contact Form", by selecting the category "Technical assistance information services." It is important to comply with these relatively new requirements to avoid any delays or issues with the resolution of tax-related matters.
This announcement serves as a reminder to taxpayers in Romania that the Virtual Private Space (SPV) service is the recommended and preferred method of communication with ANAF. Using this service will ensure that requests are properly processed and resolved in a timely manner, and will also help streamline the tax-related process.
