fiscal policy 2027 tax reform Moldova budget income tax exemption deregulation

The Government of Moldova has approved a new fiscal and customs policy for 2027, which is expected to generate approximately 5.1 billion lei for the state budget. The policy aims to simplify legislation, reduce the tax burden on labor, and support investments.

Key measures include increasing the annual personal tax exemption from 29,700 lei to 40,020 lei. Other proposed changes involve increasing the tax on dividends from 6% to 8%, raising VAT for the HoReCa sector from 8% to 12%, and introducing a 6% sin tax on gambling and lotteries. Additionally, excise duties on tobacco products are set to rise by 20% in 2027.

To support the business environment, Prime Minister Vasile Tofan has proposed deregulation measures to reduce bureaucracy and simplify administrative procedures, such as reducing the number of steps required for agricultural and energy construction projects. The government also plans to digitalize the authorization process for renewable energy projects through a single portal.
