Entrepreneur Profile
This CAEN code 62 is intended for entrepreneurs and companies (SRL, PFA) wishing to develop a business focused on it services activities. It is ideal for founders aiming to offer specialized services or products in this economic niche within the Romanian market.
Who should avoid:
Avoid the exclusive use of code 62 if the main activity of your company shifts towards other commercial or related branches not specified in the official description. See the excluded activities section below.
Activities within division 62 represent the backbone of digital transformation in Romania, focusing on custom software creation and related services.
In recent years, the IT sector has become one of the main economic drivers of the country, significantly contributing to exports and attracting massive foreign investments. Romanian software companies have distinguished themselves through high technical skills and competitive costs, which has led large international corporations to outsource complex projects here. From customized mobile applications to integrated enterprise systems, the range of services is vast, and demand is continuously growing.
However, entrepreneurs in this field face major challenges: acute shortage of specialized talent, high employee turnover, and the need for constant innovation to remain competitive. Additionally, scaling a software business requires ongoing investments in technology and training, and dependence on external markets can create vulnerabilities in the face of global economic crises.
Nevertheless, prospects remain optimistic, with Romania consolidating its position as a regional hub for software development and IT consulting, supported by an emerging educational ecosystem and government programs supporting digitalization.
