Як в’їхати

Хто і на яких умовах може в’їхати — безвізові вікна та в’їзні візи (Moldova).

Visa-free short stay (90/180)

чиннийБезвізове перебування

Для: EU citizens, US citizens, UK citizens, Ukrainian citizens

Тривалість
3 місяці
Шлях до ПМП
Ні
Вимоги (4)
  • Citizens of ~102 countries and territories (incl. the EU, US, UK, Canada, Australia) may enter Moldova visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period
  • Valid passport; entry for tourism, business or family visit
  • Time spent in Moldova does NOT count toward the Schengen 90/180 allowance (Moldova is outside Schengen)
  • Local employment requires a separate work authorisation

Податкові наслідки: Short visa-free stays generally do not create Moldovan tax residency; working remotely for foreign clients during such a stay is a legal grey zone.

Moldova is very visa-liberal — most of our audience (EU, US, UK, Ukraine) enters visa-free for 90/180. A convenient base that does not burn Schengen days, but not a work or long-stay status; for stays over 90 days a residence card is required.

Як залишитися надовго

Вимоги (4)
  • Foreign IT specialist employed by (or founding) a company that is a resident of the Moldova Innovation Technology Park (MITP)
  • The dedicated 'IT Visa' program streamlines the work-and-residence process — a fast, digital, largely paperless workflow run with the migration authority
  • Employment contract / role with the MITP-resident company; from 1 Jan 2026 a single biometric Residence Card (Carte de Rezidență) is issued
  • Available to EU citizens too, though EU nationals have simpler general access

Податкові наслідки: The MITP company pays the 7% single tax that already covers the specialist's salary income tax and social/health contributions — the lowest effective IT tax in Europe.пов’язаний режим →

The standout route for a remote IT worker: found or join a Moldova IT Park company and use the streamlined IT Visa to get residence, while the company's 7% single tax covers your salary taxes. It is employment/company-linked, not a pure digital-nomad visa (no fixed passive-income floor); the tie to an MITP-resident company is the qualifying condition.

The general non-EU residence route for those not going through the IT Visa — employment (work permit), business ownership, study or family. From 1 Jan 2026 Moldova issues a single biometric Residence Card replacing the old separate permits.
