CECCARDedicated accountant + digital CFO
You open the limited liability company (SRL), move your clients, then close your PFA (authorised natural person), so you invoice without a break. Your accountant takes over the SRL from day one.
Total at start: 751 RON. Closing the PFA is free when eConta keeps the SRL accounts. The first month of accounting is free for newly founded companies.
There is no threshold that fits everyone. It depends on how much you earn, what expenses you have and how you want to take the money out. In short:
Three profiles, over a full year. What reaches you after all taxes: in a PFA, income after income tax, CAS and CASS; in an SRL, net salary and net dividends.
The differences are a few thousand RON. At this income, the move pays off only for another reason: liability, clients or employees.
A micro-enterprise SRL with a minimum-wage salary leaves you ~8,600 RON more a year. An SRL without an employee leaves you ~2,900 RON less than the PFA.
Micro-enterprise SRL with an employee: ~6,800 RON more a year. Without an employee, the SRL leaves you ~18,800 RON less than the PFA.
Net per year, rounded to hundreds of RON. 2026 rules, services, one person, no VAT, with 6,000 RON expenses a year. In a PFA, the extra CAS you pay means a higher pension.
Calculate with your own figuresThe details that change the amount you keep. Your accountant checks them on your own figures before you start.
The SRL opens first and runs alongside the PFA for a while. The PFA is closed once your clients and contracts have moved to the SRL. The legal part — the articles of association, the CAEN codes (activity codes), the filing with the Trade Register and the deregistration of the PFA — is done by a lawyer. You sign online, and the accounting, tax returns, payroll and tax side stay with your eConta accountant.
You are not just changing the legal form. From the first month, your SRL has a dedicated accountant, invoicing with RO e-Factura, cloud documents and the Company Mirror, a monthly letter about your company, on the 5th of the month.
Radu works on your company’s data: invoices, payments received, debts, budget. You ask which option leaves you more money and you get an estimate with your own figures, which you then check with your accountant.
10 questions a month to Radu are included.
“At what monthly income do I keep more money as an SRL?”
From ~9,000 RON a month. From there up to about ~33,000 RON a month, a micro-enterprise SRL with a minimum-wage salary usually leaves more than a PFA.
| PFA, RON/year | Micro-enterprise SRL, RON/year | |
|---|---|---|
| 7,000 RON/month | 52,200 | 50,900 |
| 9,000 RON/month | 60,800 | 68,400 |
| 12,500 RON/month | 94,800 | 103,400 |
Net per year, after all taxes, with 6,000 RON expenses; in the SRL, the owner is employed on the minimum wage. 2026 rules. On your own figures, your accountant checks the calculation.
“I've worked with eConta for over a year, and what won me over is predictability. I send documents straight from WhatsApp, I get quick answers, and I know exactly what I have to do and by when. There is no more "I forgot" or "I didn't know".”
“The platform is well thought out: I have clarity on payment obligations, clear steps for what I have to do, and a predictable response time from the accountant. For an entrepreneur, that means being able to focus on the business, not on accounting.”
“I've been with eConta since the start of the company, in January 2024. I haven't missed a single payment deadline thanks to the notifications, and I can send any document straight from WhatsApp. Simple and hassle-free.”
“I use eConta to the fullest: invoicing, supplier notifications, recurring contracts, WhatsApp for documents, reminders for obligations. For a tech company like ours, it's exactly the kind of tool that disappears from view, because it simply works.”
SRL setup costs 599 RON, VAT included, plus 152 RON Trade Register fees, which you pay separately, to the state. Closing the PFA is free when eConta keeps the SRL accounts. SRL accounting then costs from 49 € a month, excluding VAT, and the first month is free for newly founded companies.
The procedure usually takes up to 10 working days from the moment the file is complete and correct. The SRL is set up first, and the PFA is deregistered after your clients and contracts have moved to the SRL.
Yes. The law allows you to have a PFA and an SRL at the same time. If you keep both, each has its own accounting and returns, and your accountant tells you what to invoice from each.
A copy of your ID (or residence permit, or passport), proof of address for the registered office, and a few specific documents, which we ask you for one by one, with explanations.
The legal part is described in the steps of the move, higher up on the page. After the setup, eConta takes over your accounting, the tax side (VAT, tax regime) and the organisation of your documents: everything you need to get started.
Income from the PFA period is declared in the Single Tax Return for that year, even if the PFA was deregistered in the meantime. The deadline is 25 May of the following year, and income tax, CAS and CASS are paid by then. Tell your accountant from the start what income you had as a PFA, so you know in good time what to file and pay.
After the SRL is registered, you invoice from the new company. Your accountant tells you which contracts must be redone for the SRL and how to close the PFA’s last invoices correctly.
Yes. The whole process can be done online, so you can move from a PFA to an SRL from anywhere, without being physically in Romania.
The registered office is the official address of the company, where you receive official documents. You can use your own address, or choose a registered office at a lawyer.
You open a company bank account and start invoicing. Your accountant and the invoicing programme are already in eConta: invoices are issued from the platform and reach RO e-Factura automatically.
The first calendar month of accounting is free for newly founded companies (49 € excluding VAT), and the first consultation session with your accountant is included.
We do the calculation on your figures: what you keep now as a PFA and what you would keep as an SRL. If it is not worth it yet, we tell you.
