Moldova to Implement Cryptocurrency Regulations by 2026

News Flash 2026-01-16 10:38

Moldova plans to introduce comprehensive cryptocurrency regulations by 2026, as announced by Finance Minister Andrian Gavriliță. The regulations aim to align with the EU's Crypto Asset Market (MiCA) framework, given Moldova's status as a candidate for EU membership. These rules will clarify the legality of holding, trading, and converting crypto assets, while authorizing specific institutions to conduct related business. Under the new regulations, cryptocurrencies will not be allowed for payment of goods or services. While holding cryptocurrencies will not incur taxes, profits from transactions will be subject to a 12% income tax. The framework will also enforce strict anti-money laundering and security measures to prevent illicit financing and money laundering activities, as emphasized by Gavriliță.
