No, because Romania hides this tax. This is discribed in the Basics chapter. You buy a package for a EUR price. But in Romania still RON is the official currency while all prices are displayed in EUR. During the conversion from EUR to RON the 19% tax is added. In the end you don't get a conversion rate of about 1:4.5 but 1:3.6 instead and can't change that. So a €12 pack will in the end cost you about €12 + 19% or about €14.38. Some banks add another fee for the currency conversion, but this varies.
