Legal entities will obtain the right to use the local symbolism of the municipality of Chisinau based on a new regulation, approved at the meeting of the Chisinau Municipal Council.
The document offers an exhaustive approach to the notion of local symbolism. If until now this referred only to the toponym Chisinau, from now on it will include the coat of arms and the flag of the municipality of Chisinau, the coats of arms and flags of the sectors that make up the city, the official or historical name Chisinau, as well as the sectors of the capital, written in any type and translations theirof, used separately or in combination with other verbal or figurative elements. The notion also refers to the image of architectural and historical landmarks of Chisinau.
The fee for the use of the toponym is approved by the CMC annually within the municipal budget. For the current year, three categories of payments are proposed in this regard: payment for the use of the toponym in the name of the legal entity - 80 thousand lei; the fee for using the symbols of local monuments in the logo or logo of the economic agent or the applicant - 20 thousand lei. And the fee for the use of the toponym in the service or product brand - 10 thousand lei.
The new regulation replaces the one adopted in 2006.
