A month and a half is left till the end of this year, and these are the most “working months” in the export sales season. At least, for some types of Moldovan fruits. However, the specifics of the harvested crop and external commodity flows in the first half of the fall show that the chances for a hundred percent selection of new (increased) quotas for duty-free export of fruits to the European Union are, alas, small.

Buyers of Moldovan plums from EU countries who paid customs duties on this product in September 2025 will be able to get the payment back,” Logos Press reports.

The extended quotas for Moldovan fruit supplies to the European Union, approved within the process of modification of the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement DCFTA, are due to open on October 4 this year, Logos Press reports.

The information channels of the European Commission, followed by a few Moldovan mass media, reported that at the beginning of the second decade of September, Moldovan exporters fully utilized the then valid annual quota for duty-free supplies of plums to the EU market. By a “happy coincidence” (or maybe due to it), the closure of the export euro quota coincided with the seasonal decline in prices and a drop in external sales of plums.
