DOC // Tax regime applied to goods imported by economic operators from Transnistrian region to be standardized
The tax regime applied to goods imported by economic operators from the Transnistrian region will be standardized. The Government Decision on the application of VAT and excise duties for certain categories of goods imported into the Republic of Moldova by economic agents based in the Transnistrian region was published in the Official Journal today.
The decision aims to ensure uniform application of tax and customs legislation throughout the country, provide fair competitive conditions, and gradually integrate economic agents from the region into the national tax and customs system.
In the first stage, starting 1 September 2026, the new regime will cover, among others, alcoholic beverages, tobacco and nicotine products, perfumes, pyrotechnic articles, furs, jewelry and precious stones, as well as certain means of transport.
For other categories, including some raw materials and petroleum products, the provisions will apply from 1 January 2027, and for natural gas, electricity, telephone devices and computers – from 1 April 2027.
The phased approach is intended to give the business environment the necessary time to adapt and to limit the impact on prices and consumers.
The ultimate objective is that, by 2030, the general tax regime will be fully applied to goods imported by economic operators from the Transnistrian region, under the same conditions as those applied to economic agents throughout the country.
