What the 2027 fiscal policy would bring an Ungheni employee: 1,236 lei a year, but higher VAT on agriculture

On 6 August the government unveiled the draft fiscal policy for 2027 and sent it out for consultation. The most visible measure for employees: the tax-free portion of income rises from 29,700 to 40,000 lei a year — about 1,236 lei extra stay each year in the pocket of every worker earning above the threshold. In Ungheni district, with 16,349 employees, that adds up to as much as 20 million lei a year. But the same policy raises VAT on agriculture, accommodation and tourism from 8 to 12%, and Ungheni is an agricultural district. Nothing has been adopted yet: the draft is only now entering debate.
