Summary/Abstract: This study investigates the viewpoints of Romanian taxpayers regarding the various attitudes and factors that impact their compliant or non-compliant behavior regarding their tax payments. A quantitative approach was used, and data collection was carried out by employing a research questionnaire distributed via a Google Form. The research hypotheses were examined with a sample size of 432 individual taxpayers, and quantitative data analysis was performed using PLS-SEM. The findings indicate that the association of tax compliance with a managerial approach model is suitable with the four study categories of quadrants that have been developed based on the Competence-Based View or Market-Based View approaches. This study offers a new perspective on tax compliance that can help tax authorities to develop policies, strategies, tactics, plans, and legal and commercial actions with the aim of avoiding tax noncompliance.
