1What the director does
The director (administrator) runs the company day to day and represents it: signs contracts, bank and ANAF documents. They can be a partner or someone else, including a foreign citizen. A company can have one or more directors.
2What you can do
- Appoint a new director, replacing the old one or alongside them.
- Remove a director. The partners can do so at any time, by resolution.
- Extend the mandate of the current director before it expires.
- The director resigns. The partners then appoint someone else.
Check when the mandate expires. It's best to extend it in time so the company always has a valid representative, for example at the bank.
3The steps
