The fee for using Moldova’s MConnect platform has been reduced to 0.25 bani per request for all users
In particular, the government approved amendments to the regulatory framework aimed at ensuring the sustainability of the state registers and the interaction platform (MConnect), improving the legislative framework of electronic document and data exchange and reducing the fees for using the MConnect interaction platform. The aim is to facilitate access to data for private participants and optimize data exchange through the MConnect platform. For users and providers of data through MConnect, the changes mean lower costs for users of data from state registers. Thanks to the approved changes, the cost is significantly reduced and set at a flat rate of 0.25 lei per data request for all users, regardless of the amount of data available. Currently, some users pay up to 10 lei for each data request. It is planned that 75% of the revenues generated will be directed to data providers to motivate them to improve the quality of their data and promote the use of electronic services instead of physical reports. And 25% of the revenues will be invested in the maintenance and development of the MConnect platform. Providers providing data through the MConnect interoperability platform will benefit from a clear compensation mechanism. Thus, there will be a fair balance between their costs and benefits to users. The procedure for connecting to the MConnect platform involves the submission of a connection application and a technical application, herewith, information security conditions are met. The proposed changes will improve the functioning of public registers, common information systems and establish clear rules for the use of digital services. // 30.01.2025 - InfoMarket
