Methodology and editorial policy

Where does the company data come from?

Every public company profile combines official, public sources only. We do not collect data by automated extraction (scraping) from other company directories. The list below is complete:

• ANAF — name, registered address, tax status, VAT registration, cash-accounting VAT, RO e-Factura enrolment, declared phone number — from ANAF’s public web service; filed financial statements — from ANAF’s public balance-sheet service.
• ONRC / Trade Register (data.gov.ro) — registration number, legal form, company state (active, struck off, dissolution, insolvency), authorised CAEN codes and legal representatives — from the open datasets ONRC publishes monthly on data.gov.ro.
• Ministry of Finance — annual financial statement indicators (turnover, profit, employees, equity) — from the Ministry’s open data on data.gov.ro.
• SEAP / SICAP and TED — public procurement contracts awarded to a company — from SEAP open data (data.gov.ro) and the EU TED register.
• Courts portal (portal.just.ro) — court files in which the company is a party, shown as published by the courts.
• Official sanctions lists — EU, OFAC (US), UK and UN — matched by identifier only, never by name.
• National Bank of Romania (BNR) — exchange rates.
• Legislative portal (legislatie.just.ro) — the legal texts in the Legislation section, in consolidated form, linked to the official act.
• Licensed providers, only where enabled — FirmeAPI (contact details and directors) and the ONRC RECOM service (registry entries, secondary offices) are integrated but used only when configured; when they are not, no request is made.

How often is the data refreshed?

• ANAF tax status is re-checked when a profile is visited and periodically in the background.
• ONRC data reloads monthly, when each new official dataset is published; financial statements yearly.
• Every profile shows the date of its last check and exposes it in its structured data (dateModified).
• Profiles of sole traders and individual or family enterprises show no phone, e-mail or address and cannot be targeted by prospecting campaigns.

Which profiles do we submit to search engines?

We publish every company in the register, but our sitemap only submits active companies with at least one financial statement showing activity, so people searching for a company land on pages with real information, not empty listings.

Who writes the tax guides?

Guides, calculators and pages on e-Factura, VAT or payroll are written by the Brivio team and carry the author’s name. Every tax text cites the source legal act and shows the date it was last checked. When the law changes, we update the page and the date.

Expert review

Tax content is reviewed by a licensed chartered accountant before publication.

Do we use artificial intelligence?

We use AI to extract and structure data from official documents and as a drafting assistant. No figure, rate or tax deadline is published without a human checking it against the official source.

How do I request a correction?

If information about your company is wrong, claim the profile from the company page and update its public data, or write to support@brivio.ro. For a mistake in a guide, use the same address; we correct it and note the update date.
