Form a Romanian company remotely, even if you are not in Romania

Can a Romanian company be formed remotely?

Company formation in Romania remotely is possible in many standard cases, but it is not something we promise before reviewing your documents. Remote Romanian SRL formation depends on who the shareholders are, how clear your identity documents are, and how those documents can be signed from where you currently live. For a single foreign individual shareholder with readable documents, a travel-free file is often realistic. For more complex structures, or where signatures need particular formalities, some steps may still require a power of attorney or another arrangement. We prefer to confirm this honestly rather than advertise a universal online process that does not fit every case.

The goal of this page is to explain what makes a remote file workable, what we have to check first, and how the process runs once we know your situation. If you want the full service overview, start with our Romanian SRL for foreigners page and treat this page as the remote-specific detail.

When remote setup is usually workable

Remote handling tends to be straightforward when you are an individual foreign shareholder, your passport or national ID is clear and consistent, and the shareholder and administrator structure is standard. In those situations, the documents can often be prepared, reviewed in English, and signed using the correct formalities for your country, without you needing to travel to Romania. Where translations or a power of attorney are needed, these can usually be arranged in advance so they do not hold up the filing.

This is also where Romania LLC registration without travel becomes practical for foreign founders who run their business from abroad. The key is that nothing is assumed. A file that looks simple at first glance can still need an extra declaration or a specific signing route, and identifying that early is what keeps a remote process genuinely remote.

What we check before confirming a remote file

Before we tell you whether your case can be handled remotely, we review a few essential points. We look at your citizenship and country of residence, your foreign address details, and whether you will also act as administrator. We check whether a foreign legal entity is part of the ownership, since corporate shareholders almost always add document requirements. We confirm whether you need a registered office in Romania, because the company must have a valid address on file. Finally, we look at how your documents can realistically be signed, as this is usually the factor that decides whether travel is needed at all.

This review is deliberately done up front. It is far better to know that a translation or power of attorney is required before the file is drafted than to pause halfway through the Trade Register process.

How the remote process works

Once your case is confirmed as suitable for remote handling, the process is designed to keep your involvement simple. You send your situation on WhatsApp or through the contact form, and we reply with the document list and a quote. We then prepare the file and, where needed, coordinate translations or a power of attorney. You sign the documents according to the requirements that apply to your case, and the file is submitted to the Romanian Trade Register. After approval, you receive the company documents, and we can refer you to an accountant for ongoing compliance.

To prepare any file, we generally need your identity document, your current address, your preferred company names, the intended activity, and the shareholder and administrator structure; the exact list is confirmed for your case. You can review what is typically required on our required documents page before you send anything.

Pricing and next step

Remote Romanian SRL formation follows the same starting points as in-person work: company formation for foreign citizens starts from €300, 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 most useful next step is to let us check whether remote setup fits your specific case. Send us your citizenship, country of residence, and desired activity, and we will tell you whether a travel-free file is realistic for you.
