The Moldovan government has approved the deduction of expenses for employee food in agriculture, including meal vouchers, if the average gross monthly salary is 9,000 lei or more.

The changes approved by the Government aim to extend tax benefits for employers in agriculture, allowing them to deduct expenses for organized employee meals, including meal vouchers, provided that the average gross monthly salary is at least 9,000 lei. This measure aims to cover daily food costs and to adapt tax regulations to current economic realities. Additionally, clear procedures for deductions are introduced, respecting the rules regarding supporting documents. The new provisions for vacation vouchers and rural tourism will come into effect on January 1, 2026.
