If you wish to provide postal services you need to send ANCOM the notification provided in art.16 of the Government Ordinance nr.31/2002, with the subsequent amendments and completions, under the terms set out by Decision no.2858/2007, with the subsequent amendments and completions.
You must fill in the standard-form and attach the documents which are part of the notification, according to Decision no.2858/2007.
How can I submit the file?
The documents can be submitted at the ANCOM headquarters or its territorial offices where you have your headquarters/domicile only as follows:
a) personally or through a representative, upon signature;
b) by mail;
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 that 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 which certifies the respective person’s right to provide postal services.
What costs are involved in the authorisation procedure?
The procedure of authorisation of the postal service providers is free of charge.
The monitoring traffic
In accordance with art.481 of the Government Emergency Ordinance no.79/2002, any person holding the capacity as a postal service provider has the obligation to pay ANCOM an annual monitoring tariff, since the date of gaining such capacity up until its cessation, calculated as a percentage (which cannot exceed 0.4%) from the turnover. As for the persons that were not providers during the 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 it had the capacity as a provider and for which the tariff is owed.
As well, according to art.485 of the Government Emergency Ordinance no.79/2002, the providers obliged to pay the monitoring tariff may choose that this tariff be established as a percentage of the revenues achieved from the provision of postal services, instead of the turnover, provided that separate accounts related to the abovementioned 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.
