Forvis Mazars, an audit, tax, and advisory services partnership, has announced the launch of its international German-Romanian desk.
This initiative is designed to meet the growing need for integrated cross-border tax and legal support between Germany and Romania, the accounting firm said.
The desk brings together a qualified German team of lawyers and an interdisciplinary Romanian team of experts in tax, law, auditing, and financial advisory, alongside Iablonschi & Associates, a Romanian law firm within the Marcalliance network.
Forvis Mazars country managing partner in Romania Dino Ebneter said: “The launch of our International German-Romanian Desk is a strategic move that underscores our commitment to strengthening business ties between Germany and Romania.
“As head of the German Desk in Romania, I’ve seen firsthand the growing complexity of cross-border transactions and the increasing demand for specialised expertise that can seamlessly navigate both legal and tax frameworks. The new desk is designed to provide comprehensive support to German companies operating in or entering the Romanian market, as well as well Romanian businesses expanding into Germany.”
The desk will be led by Edwin Warmerdam, partner & head of tax at Forvis Mazars in Romania, Alexander Labus, law partner at Forvis Mazars in Germany, and Ionuț Iablonschi, managing partner at Iablonschi & Associates.
Warmerdam stated: “The establishment of our International German-Romanian Desk underscores our commitment to supporting businesses operating in Romania, as well as in Germany, by facilitating cross-border transactions and investments and fostering strong relationships within the German community in Romania.
“From a tax perspective, the Desk will play a crucial role in helping companies navigate the complexities of cross-border tax compliance. By combining our local expertise with a deep understanding of both German and Romanian tax systems, we can provide businesses with clear, strategic guidance that minimizes risk, ensures compliance, and supports sustainable growth.”
Forvis Mazars serves a wide range of clients, including large and publicly traded companies, privately held businesses, public institutions, non-profit organisations, and individuals.
The firm is a founding member of Marcalliance, an international alliance of 25 independent law firms across 134 locations worldwide. Iablonschi & Associates joined the alliance in January 2024.
