How do I get an official company extract in Romania?
An official Romania company extract is issued by ONRC at https://www.onrc.ro. Free public search covers most verification needs; a paid certified company extract is normally only required for banking, tenders, court filings or notarised transactions.
Step-by-step
- 1
Confirm the entity first
Search by name or registration number and confirm you have the right legal entity before paying for anything.
- 2
Decide whether you need a certified copy
For internal due diligence, the free public record is usually sufficient. Certified extracts are for banks, tender submissions, courts and notaries.

Request the extract from ONRC
Extracts are issued by the register itself at https://www.onrc.ro. Third parties cannot issue a certified document.

Check the issue date
Most counterparties require an extract issued within the last three months, so request it close to when you need to submit it.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a paid extract to verify a Romania company?
Usually not. The free public record from ONRC confirms legal name, registration number, status and registered address. A certified extract is only needed when a bank, court or tender explicitly requires one.
What does a Romania company extract contain?
Typically the legal name, registration number, incorporation date, registered address, entity type and current status — the same core fields visible in the free record, but issued as an official document.
Can a third-party site issue an official extract?
No. Only ONRC can issue a certified extract for Romania. Third-party tools help you find and monitor the record, not certify it.
What is a CUI?
CUI (Cod Unic de Identificare) is the unique identification code assigned to every Romanian business. It's a numeric code used for all tax and commercial interactions. When prefixed with 'RO', it also serves as the VAT number.
