Moldova to automatically exchange more categories of financial data with other countries

The Republic of Moldova will be able to automatically exchange information on a larger number of categories of financial accounts with counterpart institutions in various countries. This will be possible after Parliament today approved, in second reading, a draft law to this effect.

MP Victoria Belous said during the Parliament’s sitting that the initiative was developed on the basis of the amendment to the Multilateral Competent Authority Agreement on Automatic Exchange of Financial Account Information, signed on January 26 this year and recently ratified by Parliament.

The document regulates the new categories of information that will be exchanged between the competent authorities of the member states of the OECD Global Forum and stipulates that the transmission of data by electronic money institutions to the State Tax Service, in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement, does not constitute a breach of professional secrecy.

The new reporting and due diligence rules will enter into force on January 1, 2027, and the entities concerned will apply the updated requirements and report the corresponding information starting from 2028.

The Republic of Moldova has been a member of the OECD Global Forum since 2016. In this context, our country has committed to implementing the two international standards on transparency and exchange of tax information: exchange of information on request (EOIR) and automatic exchange of information on financial accounts (AEOI), an objective set out in national policy documents. The agreement on the automatic exchange of data was ratified in 2022.
