ANAF has announced that it will not tax self-consumption, following the controversies generated by the statements of President Adrian Nica about products made in households.

The National Agency for Fiscal Administration (ANAF) has issued clarifications regarding the taxation of self-consumption by the population, emphasizing that it does not consider such a measure. The president of ANAF, Adrian Nica, explained that his previous statements, which sparked controversy, referred to methodological aspects related to the VAT tax gap, not to the taxation of self-consumption.

He specified that self-consumption refers to products made by households for their own consumption. ANAF collaborates with various institutions to improve the methodology for calculating the VAT gap, considering that self-consumption elements can distort estimates. Nica assured that the institution will focus on real issues, such as tax evasion, and that self-consumption will not be subject to tax inspections.
