According to Article 10 (1) of Directive 1999/62/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 June 1999 on the charging of heavy goods vehicles for the use of certain infrastructures, published in the Official Journal of the European Union L 187 of 20 July 1999, as subsequently amended and supplemented, these values shall be recalculated in order to be applied during 2010 taking into account the exchange rate for EUR and ROL in force on 1 October 2009, published in the Official Journal of the European Communities.

    ART. 2

    (1) In view of establishing the payable tax, for each means of transport provided in the annex, the enterprises and road transport operators, as defined in the Government Emergency Ordinance No 109/2005 concerning road transports, approved with amendments and supplements by the Law No 102/2006, as subsequently amended and supplemented, shall be under the obligation to submit a declaration with the specialised department of local public administration authority, within 30 days as of the first international road transport operation is performed.

    (2) The levels applicable during 2010 of the tax on means of transport mentioned in Article 263 (4) and (5) of the Law No 571/2003, as subsequently amended and supplemented, shall be approved by a Government decision, after exchange rate for EUR and ROL in force on 1 October 2009 is published in the Official Journal of the European Communities."

ART. 264 - Acquisitions and transfers of means of transport

    (1) In case of a means of transport which is acquired by a person during a year, the duty on the means of transport shall be payable by such person beginning with the first day of the month following the month when the means of transport was acquired.

    (2) In case of a means of transport which is alienated by a person during a year or which is removed from the fiscal records of the specialised department of the local public administration authority, the duty on the means of transport shall no longer be payable by such person beginning with the first day of the month following the month when the means of transport was alienated or removed from the fiscal records.

    (3) In the cases specified in paragraph (1) or (2), the duty on the means of transport shall be recalculated to reflect the period during the year when the duty applies to such person.

    (4) Any person which acquires/alienates a means of transport or which changes the domicile/head office/point of work shall have the obligation to submit a tax statement regarding the means of transport to the specialised department of the local public administration authority in whose jurisdiction the person has the domicile/head office/point of work within 30 days, inclusive, after the amendment occurred.

    (5) The alienation of a means of transport, by any of the modalities provided by the law, may not be carried out until the holder of the property title over such a means of transport has not extinguished any local fiscal debt-claims, except for fiscal obligations in dispute, due to the local budget of the territorial-administrative unit where the means of transport registered, with the overdue payment time limits by the 1st of the month following the one when the alienation takes place. The payment of the budgetary obligations shall be attested by the fiscal certificate issued by the specialised department of the local public administration authorities. The acts whereby buildings are alienated by infringing the provisions of this paragraph shall be null de jure.
