Open a Romanian SRL remotely — without travelling to Romania

Who this service is for

Romanian SRL formation for foreigners is rarely a one-size-fits-all process, and that is exactly the gap this service is built to close. We work with foreign citizens who want to set up a Romanian limited liability company, including EU and non-EU nationals, non-residents living abroad, expats already in the country, and digital entrepreneurs who need a clean European base for their business. We also support founders who will act as a foreign shareholder or foreign administrator, as well as existing Romanian SRLs with foreign ownership that need to keep their files in order.

What these cases have in common is that the details matter. Citizenship, country of residence, the way your identity documents are issued, and whether a foreign company sits in the ownership structure all change how the file should be prepared. Rather than treating every founder the same, we start by understanding your situation and then explain what the realistic path looks like.

What we help with

Our focus is the practical work of registering a company in Romania and keeping it compliant afterwards. In most engagements that means an initial review of your case, guidance on company names and business activity, preparation of the incorporation documents, and support with the filing at the Romanian Trade Register. Where your file involves foreign-language documents, we coordinate translations so that names and addresses stay consistent across every page, since inconsistencies are one of the most common reasons files are delayed.

Beyond the initial setup, we help with company changes for SRLs that already exist, such as updating shareholders, changing the administrator, or adjusting CAEN activity codes. If you do not have a Romanian address for the company, we can include a registered office in Romania as part of the package. After incorporation, when you need bookkeeping and tax filings, we can refer you to an accountant familiar with foreign-owned companies. Throughout the process, communication happens in English over WhatsApp or email, so you are never guessing about the next step.

Why foreign-founder cases are handled carefully

A Romanian SRL owned or managed by a foreign citizen is filed under the same Trade Register rules as any other company, but the supporting documents and signing route are usually more involved. A passport from one country, a residence in another, and a planned activity in Romania can each introduce small formalities that need to be planned in advance. We would rather confirm these points during a short review than discover them after a file has been submitted.

This is why we avoid promising a fixed timeline or a fully automatic process before seeing your documents. In many standard cases the work moves quickly and can be handled remotely, but the honest answer depends on your documents and how they can be signed. You can read more about that on our remote company formation page.

How the process works

Most founders start by sending a short message describing their citizenship, current country of residence, whether they need a registered office, and the business activity they have in mind. From there we tell you which documents are usually needed and whether your case looks standard or more complex. Once the document list and quote are confirmed, we prepare the file, you sign according to the requirements that apply to your case, and the documents are submitted to the Trade Register. After approval, you receive your company documents and, if you wish, an accountant referral.

Pricing follows clear starting points: Romanian SRL formation for foreign citizens starts from €300, a registered office starts from €150 per year, and a combined SRL plus registered office package starts from €450. The final quote depends on citizenship, documents, the number of shareholders, whether translations are required, and whether the shareholder is an individual or a foreign legal entity.

The clearest next step is to check your specific case before anything is prepared or paid. Send us your details on WhatsApp and we will tell you what your file is likely to require. If you want the full service breakdown first, start with our main Romanian SRL for foreigners page.
