    I am back with my question.
    In my local TESCO store i have found this:

    https://www.tesco.ie/groceries/Product/Details/?id=285047163

    but there is no any mention about NA2CO3 in the description.
    Is this washing soda NA2CO3?

    Yes. Soda crystals is an alternative name for sodium carbonate.

    Thanks a lot.

    I need it as photoresist developer and it has to be sodium carbonate.

    see it for example here

    Washing soda crystals are hydrated sodium carbonate.. You might just want to check that hydrated sodium carbonate is acceptable rather than anhydrous sodium carbonate.
