Inspectors from the General Directorate for Anti-Fiscal Fraud (DGAF) identified damage of over 6.7 million RON in the ridesharing sector at a company in Bucharest, the National Agency for Fiscal Administration (ANAF) reported on Friday.

According to a press release, in the case of an economic operator from Bucharest operating on the alternative passenger transport market through online platforms, DGAF inspectors identified that, during the period February-December 2024, he did not register and declare his tax obligations, regarding VAT and social contributions, thus benefiting from a tax advantage worth over 6.7 million RON.

In order to recover the damage caused to the state budget, insurance measures were instituted, and the criminal investigation bodies will be notified, in accordance with the provisions of Law No. 241/2005 for the prevention and combating of tax evasion.

ANAF mentions that the payment of the social health insurance contribution provides health insurance to employees and the right to medical treatments. Also, the payment of the social insurance contribution is a very important social contribution for the social insurance system in Romania because it ensures the social protection of citizens, implicitly the right to a pension.

„Inspectors of the General Directorate for Anti-Fiscal Fraud are constantly carrying out anti-fraud control actions at the national level, in order to prevent and combat tax evasion in the field of providing services directly to the population, as well as in other economic areas where phenomena of financial indiscipline or poor compliance with declarations have been identified,” the statement added.
