Flavius Jakubowicz proposed increasing the tax exemption threshold for NGOs from €15,000 to between €25,000 and €50,000, contingent on using funds for their declared purposes. He emphasized that this adjustment would alleviate pressure on alternative funding sources and enhance NGO engagement. Jakubowicz also suggested implementing measures to prevent misuse of funds, including limiting board member compensation and requiring transparency reports for NGOs receiving sponsorships. He highlighted challenges NGOs face with public registry updates and increased tax audits since 2026. The conference revealed that many NGOs in Romania struggle financially, with a significant portion reporting no income in 2022.
