Government will dissolve the Financial Guard and the Customs Authority

The government has announced plans to restructure the Financial Guard and the Customs Authority, by merging the two institutions with the National Agency for Fiscal Administration (ANAF).

According to a draft government decision, ANAF will now be responsible for collecting and managing state budget income as well as conducting fiscal inspections, customs operations and other financial guard operations.

ANAF’s new structure will include a president, four vice-presidents, a secretary general and various public employees and contracted staff. The maximum number of positions will be reduced by almost 5000, to 29,100.In addition to this, similar departments of the three institutions will merge, namely those in charge of public auditing, public procurement and investments, professional training, IT services, public relations and international cooperation.

The restructuring was announced as early as last year, in May, by ANAF president Sorin Blejnar.
