Chisinau, 20 December /MOLDPRES/ - The Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Moldova (CCI), in partnership with the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), today launched the digital service ATA-online Card, which can be accessed on CCI’s electronic platform.   

The ATA (Association of Motor Carriers) Card is an international customs document, based on which the goods which are in regime of temporary export and transit move freely, according to a simplified customs procedure.

”The Chamber of Commerce and Industry actively implements the strategy for the digital transformation of its services or we today launch a new service aimed at backing the business environment, as well as at facilitating the economic activity in Moldova,’’ CCI President Sergiu Harea said.
