Authorization procedure and Trade Register aspects for CAEN 1102

For registration with the Trade Register (ONRC) of a company having as main activity CAEN 1102 (Manufacture of wines from grapes), the standard documents must be submitted: standard application, constitutive act, proof of registered office, affidavit in accordance with Law 359/2004 on fulfilling operating conditions. No mandatory prior approval from the National Sanitary Veterinary and Food Safety Authority (ANSVSA) is required at the time of establishment, but subsequent operation is conditional on sanitary-veterinary registration. CAEN code 1102 is distinct from 1101 (distillation), requiring a production and fiscal storage authorization for ethyl alcohol and alcoholic beverages, issued by the Ministry of Finance.

Regulatory framework, specific permits, and control institutions

Wine production is subject to wine legislation (Government Emergency Ordinance 88/2004, Law 164/2015) and ANSVSA rules on food hygiene. For units producing wine for commercial purposes, sanitary-veterinary registration, sanitary authorization issued by the county public health directorates, and notification to the Wine Office (OFICIUL VITIVINICOL) for declaring plantations and production are mandatory. The main control institutions are: Tax Authority (ANAF) (for excise duties), ANSVSA (for traceability and hygiene), Labour Inspectorate (ITM) (for occupational safety) and the Financial Guard. Producers must keep records of raw material and finished product stocks in accordance with the Fiscal Code, and storage of wine under a duty suspension regime requires an authorized fiscal warehouse.

Tax management, ANAF audit risk, and specific accounting

For CAEN 1102, excise duties are due upon delivery of still wines and sparkling wines, with differentiated rates (EUR 0/hl for still wines produced by small producers under 1000 hl/year, and EUR 0/hl for sparkling wines under certain conditions, according to Annex 1 to the Fiscal Code). Excise duties are declared monthly via the customs declaration or declaration 100. Economic operators must implement the RO e-Factura system for all B2B supplies, keep separate management accounting for each excisable product, and prepare monthly reports to the National Customs Authority. The risk of ANAF audit is high regarding the producer category (small vs. industrial), the correctness of excise duty declarations, and traceability of raw materials. It is recommended to have loan agreements for equipment, strict tracking of technological losses, and submission of the single declaration for income from own production. Accounting must reflect the actual stock through periodic inventory, and depreciation of equipment (wineries, bottling lines) is carried out over normal useful life (10-15 years).
