The companies dealing with retail and wholesale trade will not have to pay for goods by transfer. The legislature adopted in the second reading a bill concerning domestic trade, by which they abrogated the last related legislative amendments whereby the companies were obliged to pay for goods only by transfer, IPN reports.

According to the bill authors, a number of companies said that there are no banking institutions, especially in rural areas, and, if they are obliged to pay by transfer, they will be unable to work. The MPs said that all the goods, regardless of the method of paying for them, are accompanied by invoices or delivery bills and tax evasion is thus avoided.

Earlier, the MPs adopted a bill by which the companies involved in domestic trade were obliged to pay for goods only by transfer. There were also laid down other conditions that can be now met by only one company in Moldova. The MPs were then accused of trying to institute monopoly on the market.
