Tax system in Romania

Romania applies a 10% flat income tax on employment income, calculated on the taxable base after deducting social contributions. Employee contributions are substantial: CAS (pension) at 25% and CASS (health insurance) at 10%, both applied to the full gross salary. Despite the low headline tax rate, the combined deduction burden of approximately 41.5% of gross salary is among the highest in Europe. Bucharest has a growing IT sector with competitive salaries relative to cost of living.
