The port in Giurgiulesti cannot get rid of scandals

The history of the construction and functioning of the Giurgiulesti International Free Port (GIFP) has been full of scandals and litigation from the very beginning. The authorities in Moldova change, the owners and “ultimate beneficiaries” succeed each other, and the fate of the port, which was once called almost the “golden gate” of Moldova, remains vague and unenviable.

Point of View

Fiscal and Customs Policy for 2026 is a good opportunity to introduce new rules for online commerce

As a rule, the fiscal and customs policy for the next year is approved/adopted around the middle of the current year or, in some cases, at the end of July, when the Parliament officially concludes its spring-summer session. This is done both to enable the Government in general and the Ministry of Finance in particular to develop the state budget for the next year on the basis of the new fiscal and customs policy, and to enable the business environment to prepare in advance for the new rules that are about to come into force.
