Results are computed with the official formulas in force and are generally accurate for standard cases. They are, however, informational estimates: special situations (exemptions, special deductions, multiple incomes) can differ. For official decisions, verify with a professional or the relevant authority.

Yes. calcula·live uses the rates in force in 2026: standard VAT 21% and reduced VAT 11% (since 1 August 2025), income tax 10%, social contributions CAS 25% and CASS 10%, and a gross minimum wage of 4,325 RON. When the law changes, we update the default values.

No. Results on calcula·live are informational estimates and do not replace tax, legal or medical advice. For official filings, contracts or important decisions, verify the figures with a licensed accountant, a lawyer, your doctor, or directly with ANAF or the National Bank of Romania (BNR).

The formulas are based on official sources: the Romanian Fiscal Code and Civil Code, the rates published by ANAF, the minimum wage set by government decision and, for exchange rates, BNR references. Each page shows the formula and an example so you can check the calculation yourself.

We review the rates and formulas regularly, especially at the start of the fiscal year and after major legislative changes. The date of the last review is marked in each page’s structured data, and the default values reflect the current law.

No. The calculators on calcula·live run entirely in your browser, and the values you enter are not sent to and not saved on our servers. We create no accounts and keep no history of your calculations.

The gross national minimum wage in Romania is 4,325 RON in 2026. The net amount received is lower, after contributions and income tax are withheld; you can find the exact figure with the net salary calculator.

The standard VAT rate in Romania is 21%, applied to most goods and services, in force since 1 August 2025. There is also a reduced 11% rate for categories such as food, medicines, books, accommodation and utilities. You can add or remove VAT with the VAT calculator.

Income tax in Romania is generally a flat 10% applied to salaries and most personal income. From the gross salary, CAS (25%) and CASS (10%) contributions are also withheld before tax.

From the gross salary you subtract the pension contribution CAS (25%), the health contribution CASS (10%) and income tax (10%) applied after the personal deduction; what remains is the net salary. The net salary calculator runs all these steps automatically.

A monthly loan payment depends on the amount borrowed, the annual interest rate and the term in months, following the annuity formula. The longer the term, the smaller the payment, but the more total interest you pay. You can compute the payment and total interest with the loan calculator.
