are conducted via limited liability companies (the
most common legal form of company), or joint stock
companies. Investors, either domestic or foreign,
usually prefer a limited liability company when they
decide to set up a small or a middle sized business
in Romania, especially if the company will be
managed by its shareholders, while the joint stock
companies are usually, but not always, large
companies with more widely dispersed ownership.

a legal entity upon its registration with the
Romanian Trade Register Office, where certain
legal formalities have to be followed, including a
delegated judges decision and the granting of the
fiscal code of the new company.
