Moldova aligns with the EU standards on quality control for fresh fruits and vegetables. The law on compliance control with quality requirements for fresh fruits and vegetables adjusts the field to European standards, increases product quality, protects consumer rights, and increases the volume of exports.<\/p>\n

There are several types of certificates issued by the Moldovan state institutions:<\/p>\n

Certificates of origin<\/strong><\/p>\n

Certificates of origin are confirmatory documents proving the origin of the goods. If  the exporting country has signed any agreements with the importing country that provides for the preferential treatment of the commodity in the shipment process, the certificate of origin is the act that ensures such preferential treatment. Based on the international agreements signed by the Republic of Moldova, the Customs Institute offers three types of certificates of origin.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

1. CT-1 certificate<\/strong> This act offers the possibility to pass all tax-free customs procedures in the economic block of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). Due to the political and economic conflicts of the Republic of Moldova with the Russian Federation, only a part of the Moldovan products were exempt from customs duty, namely: 0806, 0810, 0811.  In the rest of the CIS states, CT-1 form provides 100% commodity preference.<\/em><\/p>\n

An example of the CT-1 form can be viewed here-><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

For the issuance of the CT-1 Form Certificate of Origin in accordance with the rules of the country of origin the goods must be obtained in the Republic Moldova under the following conditions:
\na) in its entirety;<\/p>\n

b) with the usage of products other than those referred to (a), provided that the goods undergo sufficient processing;
\nc) using materials originating in CIS Member States, provided that such goods undergo sufficient processing.<\/p>\n

Each item in a consignment shipped must fulfill all conditions.<\/p>\n
