Methodology and assumptions
  • Scenario A. 0% reinvested-profit SME regime. Distributions of net profit attract 12% CIT plus 6% WHT, an effective ~17.28% on the gross distributed amount. Retained share grows untaxed at the corporate level until distributed.
  • Scenario B. Standard regime. 12% CIT applies to all profit each year; 6% WHT applies to the distributed share. Retained share grows at the assumed annual rate.
  • Final extraction: at the horizon, all retained capital is distributed in a single year. In Scenario A: 12% CIT plus 6% WHT on the full retained pool. In Scenario B: only the 6% WHT applies on extraction.
  • Eligibility: turnover under MDL 100M, fewer than 250 staff, not in trade (NACE G), finance, insurance, FEZ or MITP.
  • Statute: Codul Fiscal al RM (Law 1163/1997).
