# I'm not paying VAT but it's mandatory to fill my country code

# I’m Not VAT Registered, but I Can’t Deselect the RO Prefix in Checkout

The RO prefix represents the **country code**, not the VAT code. If you’re not VAT registered, you won’t be able to deduct this tax anyway, so there’s no need to worry. The decision to apply the RO prefix for all companies is mandated by ANAF and aligns with EU standards.

We are required to include the registration code with the RO prefix when submitting invoices through the e-invoice system.
