Two digitization packages that will assist entrepreneurs and not only are being designed and will be launched soon. One of them refers to electronic trading, while the other one will simplify the notarial procedures related to entrepreneurial activity, Deputy Prime Minister for Digitization Iurie Țurcanu said in a press club meeting, being quoted by IPN.

The official said the first package refers to the online environment and the provider-supplier relations. To implement the e-trading scenario, several key measures are needed, such as trading platforms, online payments, digital taxation and infrastructure. These provisions were included in the given package.

The second digitalization package will offer notaries access to administrative data resources and these will be asked to no longer insist on the presentation of information on paper.

In another development, Iurie Țurcanu said the first legislative package for the digitization of the economy that was published in the Official Gazette in December took effect on January 11. This law covers a number of sections where interaction between business and the state was blocked. The given law encourages the entrepreneurs to use distance interaction methods. It was introduced the obligation for the authorities to use electronic documents when they interact with the general public.

Another law adopted by Parliament is the law on public services concerning interaction between the state and citizens in the context of the provision of public services. The law extends the period of validity of digital signature for a period of up to five years.
