THE ROLE OF LOCAL TAXES AND DUTIES
    IN  THE ROMANIAN ECONOMY AND
         THE IMPORTANCE OF THEIR
   COLLECTION TO THE LOCAL BUDGET


Camelia  Madalina   BELDIMAN*


Abstract

This work aims to highlight the impact on the population from the perspective of the increase of local
taxes and fees related to residential buildings by up to 50% depending on the notary grid that will take
place at the beginning of 2025, compared to the last three years. Thus, Government Ordinance No. 16
of July 15, 2022 was adopted to amend and supplement Law no. 227/2015 regarding the Fiscal Code,
the repeal of some normative acts and other financial-fiscal measures that provide for the elimination of
all texts previously adopted by the Senate, specifying that starting with the year 2025 all taxes/fees on
residential buildings will be calculated based on notary grids, the goal being that of increasing it by up
to 50% by increasing revenues compared to the general consolidated budget. The objectives of fiscal
policies in the field of taxes and local taxes regarding the review of the property taxation system
contribute to the promotion and preservation of sustainable economic growth, by simplifying the
taxation system to be more efficient, transparent and fair, resulting in the gradual reduction of fiscal
facilities in the field of property taxation. Local budgets have an important role within the consolidated
general budgets, as they occupy a constant position, which the states try to keep balanced, regardless of
the periods crossed. Local taxes and fees are individualized by the fact that the local public
administration authorities have powers in setting, calculating and collecting them.
