Tax and compliance

Resident treatment: Moldovan government guidance states resident individuals are generally taxed on income from all sources, including outside Moldova, with PIT at 12%. Non-resident treatment: non-residents are taxed on Moldovan-source income only. Foreign income exemption: partial, because foreign-income treatment depends on tax-code categories and treaty application. Assumptions: tax_residency_trigger_days is set to 183 based on Moldovan Tax Code residency framework (official legal text in Romanian); employee social contribution proxy uses the published 9% mandatory medical insurance contribution from wages, while the same official source publishes a 24% social-insurance contribution without a clear employee/employer split on that page. Confidence: low (key legal details are primarily available in Romanian and contribution split is not explicit on the cited wage-contribution page).

Cost and infrastructure

• Monthly cost baseline: $866
• Rent (1BR city center): $446
• Internet: $10
• Coworking: Data not published

Method: LivingCost country-level USD averages retrieved 2026-02-27. Average baseline is the source's 'Total with rent' (one person). Poor baseline is computed as without-rent basket + cheap 1BR + utility bill (1 person) + internet; comfortable baseline is computed as without-rent basket + city-center 1BR + utility bill (1 person) + internet. Baselines: poor $844.57, average $866.26, comfortable $952.99. monthly_coworking_usd is null because this source does not publish an auditable country-level coworking monthly pass metric. Source date context: LivingCost page content current as of retrieval date. Confidence: medium (aggregated/crowdsourced country averages, significant intra-country city variance).
