Summary/Abstract: The history of Jews in Moldavia during the 18th century and the first two decades of the 19th one is a major researching subject in writing the general history of the country, in the absence of which we couldn’t understand the Romanian society modernizing. Even if many studies were written and many tomes of papers were published, aspects less analyzed and unpublished documents still exist. The present article brings some completitions regarding both the relation between the Jewish community (Jewish Guild) Iaşi and statal authority, as reflected in the annual tax the community had to pay and the examption they were given, and to relation between native Jews and the Sudit Jews (Austrian or Russian foreign subjects), as revealed by the dispute concernig tax on kosher meat.
