Moldova IT Park Regime

Open Last verified July 2026

Open and extended, and verified. The state guarantee of the tax regime runs through 31 December 2035, and the park's operational term was extended from 10 to 20 years, to 2037.

7% of revenue covers corporate tax, payroll tax, and social and medical contributions in one line. Employees pay 0% personal income tax, and the state guarantee runs to 2035. That makes this a genuinely competitive regime, and the guarantee is a stronger commitment than most of the region offers. For a software business with real Moldovan staff, this is the best structure on this list.

What can go wrong
  • It replaces the taxes it replaces. That 7% is charged on revenue, not profit. On a low-margin business, this is worse than it sounds.
  • The regime is guaranteed to 31 December 2035. Model the cliff.
  • It requires genuine certification and qualifying activity. It is not a nameplate.
  • Moldova exchanges under CRS with a first exchange in 2024.
