«x lei» — that is what the government wrote where the price of approving an EU-imported car should be
Parliament has passed, in first reading, a law requiring type approval for every vehicle brought into the country and every car part placed on the market. Moldova has no such system today — and in the government's own tariff table, all eight services read «x lei». The only figure in the document is the European benchmark: 80–180 euros for an individual approval. The law takes effect only on 1 January 2029, and the Public Services Agency — the very body that will carry out the approvals — told the ministry that «the impact of the draft law on the national public budget cannot be positive».
