News from Moldova: one more piece of legislation to combat delayed payment in commercial transactions
On 22 April 2025, Law No. 66/2025 on combating delayed performance of payment obligations in contracts between professionals or between professionals and public authorities was published ("Law No. 66"). Although Law No. 66 is meant to transpose certain norms from European Directive 2011/7/EU and essentially repeats the wording from the Civil Code of Moldova that is currently in force, the legislation is meant to further strengthen the enforceability of payment obligations in commercial transactions (including with foreign counterparts). Law No. 66 will enter into force on 22 October 2025.
