How can I submit the documents?
The documents can be submitted at the ANCOM headquarters (Registry Office) or its territorial offices where you have your headquarters/domicile only as follows:
a) personally or through a representative, upon signature;
b) by a postal service;
c) in electronic format, by e-mail with an included, attached or logically associated extended electronic signature based upon a qualified certificate that has not been invalidated or revoked at the respective moment, generated by a secured device for creating electronic signature.
What follows the notification?
Any person who sent the notification in compliance with the legal provisions is authorised to provide the postal services indicated therein starting with the date of filing the notification, undergoing, correspondingly, the general authorisation regime. Within 7 days, ANCOM will issue a standard-certificate to the person who made the notification, in compliance with the legal provisions, which certifies the respective person’s right to provide the postal services indicated in the notification.

The monitoring traffic
In accordance with Chapter X of Government Emergency Ordinance no.111/2011 on electronic communications, approved with amendments and completions by Law no.140/2012, any person holding the capacity as a postal service provider has the obligation to pay an annual monitoring tariff to ANCOM, from the date of gaining such capacity up until its cessation, calculated as a percentage (which cannot exceed 0.4%) of the turnover. As for the persons that were not providers during an entire calendar year, the monitoring tariff is calculated as a percentage of the turnover registered in the months of the year preceding that in which the respective persons had the capacity as providers and for which the tariff is owed.
As well, according to art.129 of Government Emergency Ordinance no.111/2011, the providers with the obligation to pay the monitoring tariff may choose that this tariff be determined as a percentage of the revenues achieved from the provision of postal services, instead of the turnover, provided that separate accounts related to the mentioned categories of revenues are kept and audited. The providers that register a turnover which does not exceed the equivalent in RON of EUR 100,000 do not have the obligation to pay the monitoring tariff.
