Insolvency & Bankruptcy Advisory in Romania

Bankruptcy and insolvency lawyer in Romania. Insolvency proceedings in Romania

According to the provisions of the Insolvency Law no. 85/2014, insolvency and liquidation in Romania refer to the state of a debtor’s assets characterized by insufficient available funds to pay certain, liquid, and due debts. According to the same provisions, a debtor in a state of corporate insolvency in Romania is obliged to file an insolvency request with the court in order to initiate insolvency proceedings in Romania.

Thus, after following all the stages deriving from the initiation of insolvency proceedings in Romania, the debtor may follow either successively or separately the judicial reorganization procedure and/or the procedure for entering into bankruptcy of a company, this being the general corporate bankruptcy liquidation in Romania. On the other hand, the simplified liquidation procedures in Romania involve the direct entry into bankruptcy without following a reorganization process.

Entering into bankruptcy is the final stage of liquidation procedures in Romania, aimed at liquidating the debtor’s assets to cover liabilities and removing the company from the register in which it was established, either by the legal representative or with the assistance of an insolvency solicitor in Romania.

The bankruptcy procedure for a company is also a form of corporate liquidation in Romania, being a collective and equal procedure, considering that the debtor’s patrimonial assets are realized to satisfy the claims of multiple creditors.

Restructuring lawyer in Romania. Liquidation procedures in Romania

As previously mentioned, a debtor in a state of corporate insolvency in Romania is obliged to file an insolvency request with the court to initiate insolvency proceedings in Romania regulated by the Insolvency Law no. 85/2014, within a maximum of 30 days from the occurrence of the state of insolvency. Additionally, if the creditor’s claim is certain, liquid, and due for more than 60 days, they are entitled to request company insolvency services in Romania for the debtor.

The bankruptcy procedure is carried out by analyzing the document called a bankruptcy petition, filed by the debtor or one of the creditors. A bankruptcy petition must include all identification details of the creditors and debtor, all information regarding claims, or other relevant data for insolvency and liquidation in Romania.

Entering bankruptcy is based on the ruling or decision issued by the syndic judge when the debtor has expressed the intention to enter directly into the simplified liquidation procedures in Romania, when they have not declared an intention for reorganization, or when none of the interested parties propose a reorganization plan. Also, if a plan is proposed but not accepted and confirmed, it cannot produce legal effects.
