Travel Summary

 
  • You should avoid any political rallies, demonstrations or large gatherings.

  • Our Embassy in Chisinau has been advised by the Moldovan authorities that student groups wishing to attend summer camps and/or carry out charity/voluntary work should complete the attached form and bring this with them when they visit Moldova.

  • There is a low threat from terrorism. But you should be aware of the global risk of indiscriminate terrorist attacks which could be in public areas, including those frequented by expatriates and foreign travellers.

  • We advise caution if considering travelling to the Transnistria region. This region is outside of the control of the Moldovan authorities, and British consular services may be limited in their ability to help.

  • Most visits to Moldova are trouble-free. See General - Consular Assistance Statistics. The Moldovan authorities are strictly enforcing penalties (including deportation) against those who overstay. See Entry Requirements.

  • You should be vigilant to petty crime, particularly in Chisinau. Leave your passport, travel documents and other valuable items in a safe place. But you should always carry a photocopy of your passport for identification purposes, as police checks are frequent.

  • There are strong penalties for possession or use of drugs and avoid taking photographs of military or government installations. See Local Laws and Customs section.

  • You should take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance before travelling.  See General - Insurance.
