A four-month moratorium will be instituted on the receipt of new applications for obtaining Moldovan citizenship by investment, under a bill approved by the Government, IPN reports.
Until the four-month period expires, the Government will decide whether to extend the moratorium for another period of at least two months or not. All the applications for obtaining Moldovan citizenship by investment submitted before the bill takes effect will be examined as usual.
It should be noted that Parliament gave a first reading to a bill that abrogates the program to grant citizenship by investment.
Two persons have been granted Moldovan citizenship by investment so far. One is from Australia and another one is from India. A number of 34 files are being examined.
