The paper plans to analyze the evolution and structure of trade of the Republic of Moldova between 2005 and 2015, its weight correlated with that of other important trade partners and its potential for development.

We want to see the main categories of products that are exported from Moldova and also the main products that are imported and how this trade changed according to the legislation.

In the third part we will analyze the overall trade of Moldova with Romania, measuring the evolution of the weight of Romanian exports and imports from and towards Moldova and the changes in their structure. An objective will be to set a theoretical optimum level of development in order to set a level of trade which could support a strong and sustainable economic development between the two countries.
