Bogdan Toma, Senior Associate at Dragne & Asociatii, was quoted by the business publication Wall-Street.ro on the effects of the lump-sum tax, that the government wants to introduce in certain activity fields, such as tourism and the services industry.
Bogdan Toma stated that the initiative could be effective in controlling the fiscal evasion in certain sectors that are traditionally affected by it. However, in his opinion, such measures should only be applied on the short term, as they are discriminatory and unjust towards the rest of the tax-payers, which have to pay proportional taxes.
