Moldova Plans to Introduce Cryptocurrency Regulations in 2026


According to market sources, Moldovan Finance Minister Andrian Gavriliță announced that the country plans to implement cryptocurrency regulations in 2026. As a candidate member of the European Union, Moldova must adhere to the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulatory framework.
The new regulations will clarify the legality of citizens holding, trading, and converting crypto assets, and authorize specific institutions to conduct related activities. However, cryptocurrencies will not be permitted for payments for goods or services. Regarding taxation, while holding cryptocurrencies will not be taxed, any trading profits generated from them will be subject to a 12% income tax.
The regulations will also include strict anti-money laundering and security risk management measures. Andrian Gavriliță emphasized that the government's goal is to legalize this sector while preventing cryptocurrencies from being used for illegal financing and money laundering activities.
