The owners of motor vehicles with foreign registration numbers will be able to clear these with a 70% reduction. It goes to cars older than seven on the day the import duties are paid, which have travelled in Moldova for at least 90 days cumulatively. This way, the owners will pay 30% of the import duty set for 2023. The MPs gave a final reading to a relevant bill, IPN reports.
The bill provides that the vehicles that were destroyed or sold as parts, which is confirmed by justificatory documents or the own responsibility statement of the person, will be excluded from the information system of the Customs Service only after the import duty of 15,000 lei is paid.
The authors argued that the new Customs Code takes effect on January 1, 2024 and this limits the stay of foreign-plated units of transport in Moldova to 180 days during a year. Currently, in Moldova there are about 180,000 units of transport that were placed under temporary admission customs regime.
The law takes effect when it is published in the Official Gazette.
