Practical examples
- Individual landlord renting an apartment in Cluj-Napoca for 12 months — mandatory ANAF registration within 30 days of signing.
- Commercial space (office) lease for an LLC, with annual inflation indexation clause.
- Landlord managing 3 simultaneously rented apartments — the contracts are kept together in the account archive, with an expiry radar.
- Tacit renewal of an expired contract — an addendum is drawn up from a template.
Common mistakes
- Missing the 30-day ANAF registration deadline — fine between 250 and 1,000 RON.
- Contract signed without rent indexation clause — disputes at renewal.
- No handover condition clause — impossibility of recovering damages.
- Using a generic template without mandatory mention of value in RON at signing date.
