24 June 2020 – The government approved the regulation on the use, administration and development of government business portal. Through this portal, businesses in Moldova are provided with a simpler access, through a single online-point to official information of public interest and those about the company, available in the registers and information systems of data providers.

The issue of creating an information resource for business, which would aggregate information and services for business (accessing information from public registers, obtaining permissive documents, reporting, tax services, etc.), has been addressed since 2018 in the Economic Council. Members of the platform, following a survey organized by the Secretariat of the Economic Council, established three themes that required priority discussions within the Ad hoc Working Group of the platform “Digitisation of relations between authorities and business”.

Among them, and the need to create the government business portal. The secretariat of the Economic Council held discussions with the e-government agency on the need to develop a government business portal concept. Experts came up with a number of proposals on this solution of digital interaction of business community with state institutions. Subsequently, the E-government agency developed the government decision on the approval of the regulation on the use, Administration and development of the government business portal.
