The Republic of Moldova and the European Union have begun accession negotiations, with Moldova moving to align its legislation with EU standards.

Parliament has approved amendments to Law 235/2011 on accreditation and conformity assessment, allowing results from EU-notified bodies for products bearing the CE marking to be automatically recognized in Moldova. This means products lawfully marketed in EU member states will no longer require additional testing or certification before entering the Moldovan market.

The change applies also to radio equipment assessed under the EU’s RED Directive, regardless of country of origin.

The updated law, already endorsed by the Government and Parliament, will soon be published in the Official Monitor.
