Eesti Vabariigi ja Moldova Vabariigi vahelise sotsiaalkindlustuslepingu muutmise protokolli ratifitseerimise seadus

This Estonian law ratifies a protocol that amends the existing social security agreement between Estonia and the Republic of Moldova. Such bilateral agreements coordinate social insurance rules between two countries, so that periods of work and contributions can be taken into account across borders. The protocol updates the terms of that cooperation. Ratification is the formal step by which the Riigikogu, Estonia's parliament, approves the international commitment so it can take legal effect. The change mainly concerns people who have worked or lived in both Estonia and Moldova, as well as their families and the pension and social insurance bodies that administer their benefits. The metadata does not specify the exact amendments, so the detailed effects are not described here. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
