Prime Minister Pavel Filip instructed the minister of finance and the minister of economy to hasten the examination and countersigning of the draft decision on the implementation of the Unified Report project to unify five reports on the payment of salaries and taxes, IPN reports.
According to the Government’s press office, the measure is designed to facilitate the work of business entities by diminishing the time and costs associated with the compilation and presentation of reports to public authorities, eliminating information doubling, reducing the reported data by about 40% and creating the conditions needed for legal entities to interact with one authority instead of three, as now.
The Unified Report will include the report on the value of income taxes paid that is presented by the State Tax Service each month; the declaration on the calculation and utilization of the mandatory state social insurance contributions that is asked monthly by the National House of Social Insurance; the insured person’s declaration, including the form REV-2, which is presented monthly to the National House of Social Insurance; the report on the calculation of the mandatory health insurance premiums that is presented quarterly to the State Tax Service, and the form 2-03/l that is submitted to the National Health Insurance Company when the work relations between employer and employee are modified.
The project to create the Unified Report was thought up by the Ministry of Economy with the support of the BRITE project, on the initiative of the members of the Premier’s Economic Council.
According to statistics, an economic entity in Moldova in 2015 needed 186 hours to prepare the necessary documents and pay taxes.
