One-stop registration with no minimum capital for an SRL

Reviewed· 2026-08-02

The srl is the standard company and since 2017 requires no minimum share capital. The Public Services Agency operates a one-stop shop that registers the company, assigns the fiscal code and enrols it for social contributions in a single filing.

Key rules

  • No minimum capital applies to an srl; capital must be paid within six months.
  • Registration by the Public Services Agency simultaneously creates tax and social insurance records.
  • Companies must file beneficial ownership data with the state register.
  • Sole entrepreneurs may register as an individual enterprise with lighter reporting.

Governing law

  • Law No. 135/2007 on limited liability companies (2007)
  • Law No. 220/2007 on state registration of legal entities (2007)
  • Civil Code (2002)As recodified in 2019.

In practice

Moldova IT Park offers a single 7% turnover tax replacing most other business taxes for accredited technology companies, and it is the main reason software firms register locally.
